Beschreibung

The DeSoto Airstream was introduced for the 1935 model year and featured a much more traditional design than its sibling, the Airflow, which was polarizing and not completely well-received by the public. As a result, the Airstream was by far the more popular model and was offered in coupe, sedan, or convertible body styles.

This S-1 Airstream Custom was believed by Mark Smith to be formerly the property of Pacific Auto Rental, the legendary Los Angeles-based film car rental company, and used in the filming of Miracle on 34th Street. The DeSoto still features the iconic yellow and checkerboard New York City Yellow Cab livery, an Ohmer fare register, and jump seats in the rear compartment. With a great deal of patina throughout, this Airstream has a lot of character and would be sure to attract ample attention once it is returned to the road.

*Please note that this Lot, like all vehicles in this Auction, has been in long-term static storage and may not be currently operational. It will require mechanical attention prior to any road use.
