The Firedome model name was introduced for 1952 model year.
It was named after it's "FireDome" 276.1 cubic inch hemi head (hemispherical combustion chamber) engine.
'59 was the last year for Firedome model and, by then, they were actually using the "Turboflash" 383 cubic inch B block wedge head engine with a 2 barrel carburetor or the optional "Adventurer" 383 wedge head engine with two 4 barrel carbs and a hi-lift camshaft. Ooh-Rah !!! That's probably enough to get this sled airborne!

Thanks Chris! :-) I'm more of a fan of the Art Deco DeSotos, but I know there are a lot of folks out there who like the late 50s.
