These cars were mobile artwork, especially from '57 to '61. I had a '59 pillarless Belvedere and a '60 Dodge Phoenix here in Sydney. They make me drool.
Dodge is drop dead gorgeous. These cars were art work in the 50s. Pieces of art in design and work man ship. Just saw one sell on Barrett Jackson in Florida for $200.000 it was yellow and black two tone. Unreal and rare !
+Wayne Martin: Those American cars from that time really _were_ works of art - especially from about '55 to '61. I live in Sydney. I had a '60 Phoenix, a '64 Pontiac Parisienne and later I bought a candy-apple red pillarless '59 Fury. Whacked a 440 into her. Beautiful car, would make you cry. The Custom Royal/Desoto is one of my favourites. The guys that designed these vehicles - I know Virgil Exner was very influential - really did love what they were doing. The ornateness of those times might never be repeated.
As Robert said, no mention of the Dual 4-barrels which was part of the D500 package which also wasn't mentioned. This was a rare option, note D500 emblem on the fuel door. I love the car and I don't blame the presenter but whoever directed this should have researched the car they were presenting. It's a shame it wasn't presented properly, a disservice was done to this outstanding car.
@@usmale4915 It was one model that had the scrolling linear drum speedo introduced first in '57" if memory serves. A friend in high school was left one from his grandma's passing and boy; was he popular.
*GORGEOUS* automobile! MY late Auntie Clara and Uncle Pete had a 1959 Dodge Custom Royal, that they bought brand new in the Fall of 1958. Theirs was a hard top, but looked very similar to this one. It was 2-tone as well, in a creamy/white and light brown. My Auntie drove it until she passed in 1981. It still looked showroom new, as it was always kept in a closed garage that they had. :)
@@elaineewalt8137 When my Auntie passed, my Uncle Bill (her Brother) had the car...then after that I don't know what happened to it. I believe they sold it years ago, according to my late Aunt Betty (Uncle Bill's wife).😕
@@elaineewalt8137 Thanks Elaine. I just hope wherever and whoever has it now, is looking after it like my dear Auntie Clara did all those years. It sure was a beaut of a car and we loved getting rides in it. 😊
@@willyboy6126 I bet you do! And if was still in great shape like you stated, someone, somewhere, is treasuring that machine! We can only pray it's still being garage-kept! 😉👍🙏💯
Not just any V8, this is the Super D500 engine, Dodge's high performance engine. It was available as part of the D500 performance and handling package or be itself. It was rated at 345 horsepower
Good point. it sounds like she's reading it, or has memorised it. But if we want to be serious, it's really only men and boys that truly love cars. I'm talking about the fanatic department here. . . .
I saw the same car new in 1959 with my dad at Cahill Motors in Brockton,Ma...the most unique feature were the front swivel seats and it appeared engine had 2 4 barrel carbs
This was useless, how about HP , 2 carbs, production number, value $, torque and performance, competitors, top action I can see it has chrome good lord I would describe a mailbox with so little passion!!!
Please find a presenter with a real knowledge & passion for the car to present the viewers with facts & figures for the model ie. A guy! not someone there as eye candy!!! I'm not being sexist either!!!
Wow! A 50's car with dual horns and fins! Yay! Perhaps find someone a little more interested in the vehicle next time you show one! Thumbs down for this vid, not the vehicle!
Damn nice!!... that's when a car a a bodystil ..not like the one's today....plus you could buy one for 3 thousand dollars out of the show case room....now you pay over 50 thousand or more.....

I agree that the video is horrible. Should be presented by someone knowledgeable. This is a beautiful car that i would have liked to see more in depth.
I think the reason alot was not presented was becus this looks like a car museum, and those cars are not to be touched or sat in, much less demo-ing power top and all...🥱
Wow, what a beautiful car. One of the best-styled Dodges of all time, if I may say so.
Thanks for your comment. I have tremendous great videos to be posted. Share your favorite video on Social media if you could.
Producer has NO automotive experience. Gorgeous, well equipped classic Dodge. Historical car for sure.
She hasn't a clue - it's a D-500...

Yup. Just stunning and gorgeous. It want!!
This is something that can’t be duplicated today
Real class

@harry pag and whitewall tires...................duh!
Would have liked to see the interior, instrument cluster and the operation of the convertible top! Very poor presentation! So sad.
Exactly correct! The presenter wasn’t trained at all! Bad form.
But she did mention the dual horns and not the carbs... geeeze!!!??

A work of art on wheels. The color scheme is incredible. 50's cool 👍🏻😉
This car is absolutely stunning!
Very beautiful perfect amazing looking car wow just love it thanks friend have a very nice day

You may be cute but they need to find someone who knows about the car, "This car has a V8 engine..."!?
So beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing.
Pathetic review of an extremely rare car. Not one mention of the power train or history of the car.
Looks like a spiffy car. That shows the Dodge quality I want to remember.
The vehicle is a work of art.
I can't remember if the D500 engine was a 383 or 361 for that model.
Probably 361 in '59.
@@pintificate it's a 383 cui for the D500 & super D500 for 1959 sir!
Gorgeous looking car's Shame Couldn't get to 👀 See the Beautiful Dash instruments!
Thanks for your comment. USClassicMuscleCars has tons of great videos in 4k to post...keep watching.
are those "moon equipped" eyes?
Dual horns?? Oh WOWEE!
Much of the shiny metal that you refer to as chrome is actually stainless steel.
Twin Quad carbs, holy crap! Thing must have been quick in it's day.
When she said duel horns, all I saw was duel carb's. Didn't see the duel horns?
Magnificent.
White wall tires and a horrendously long intro noise
One of the best I have ever seen!!
MOPAR , matchless !!!!!
Can they find someone with a little more enthusiasm for the car ?
Good point. it sounds like she's reading it, or has memorised it. But if we want to be serious, it's really only men and boys that truly love cars. I'm talking about the fanatic department here. . .
.
Ya but she fills the jeans out.
Maybe but a skirt or something sexier would have went better with the car. She’s dressed like she’s going to a church bingo. 👎
This car is sick! The next time one of these comes up for sale, I hope I'm prepared to buy.
Hope she can get her cashier job back at Walmart.
The car is fantastic and the girl is really cute
An Incredibly Beauuuutiful Car!❤️
Great 👍 looking car 🚗 thanks
Proof the Virgil Exner wasn't a designer, he was a sculpture r!!!! One of Dodges beautiful years!
Dual horns!
When I come into money this will be mine
I saw the same car new in 1959 with my dad at Cahill Motors in Brockton,Ma...the most unique feature were the front swivel seats and it appeared engine had 2 4 barrel carbs
Beautiful car but get a different presenter!
Beautifl auto
Should be a 383 cube V-8. Then there was the "D-501" model...wonder if
A real classic.
Don't be critical she is respecting the knowledgeable in case you missed it
Pretty gal but knows absolutely nothing deeper than the appearance of this fine classic Dodge! LoL
I don't know which is prettier, the car or the gal.
David Harrison The “gal” was! 👍
Don't you think it was worth mentioning the duel quads the size of the V8 whether it had power windows etc....
no, dual horns were more important, as if any car had only one horn.
I saw cranks for the windows.
Very lame presentation for a remarkable vehicle...very sad the car and the viewing public deserves much better!
This was useless, how about HP , 2 carbs, production number, value $, torque and performance, competitors, top action I can see it has chrome good lord I would describe a mailbox with so little passion!!!
Please find a presenter with a real knowledge & passion for the car to present the viewers with facts & figures for the model ie. A guy! not someone there as eye candy!!! I'm not being sexist either!!!
Dual horns?? Dual 4 barrel carbs. I expected for her to say hey everybody this car has 4 tires I think! TeeHee!!!!
Please next time have someone present the car who has an automotive knowledge & an appreciation of the history of this classic Automobile!!!🤨🙄
Wow! A 50's car with dual horns and fins! Yay! Perhaps find someone a little more interested in the vehicle next time you show one! Thumbs down for this vid, not the vehicle!
I like the presenter better than the car so she didn't mention this cars amenities so what she has worthwhile amenities
Thomas Norman Exactly!!!👍
Damn nice!!... that's when a car a a bodystil ..not like the one's today....plus you could buy one for 3 thousand dollars out of the show case room....now you pay over 50 thousand or more.....
Wow, I can't, I just can't 🤗
Don't get me wrong, I want to see under the hood, but a shot with it closed would be nice to get the full impact of the front end of that beauty.
I was not too enthused with this EXNER creation until the narrator told me it had “dual horns”......then I had to have it.
Yeah, they really did their homework preparing this presentation!!!!
The duel horns blew me away too. I thought she was talking about a prize bull.
She might have thought the air-cleaners were horns.
How many were produced? How many are left?

18 people thumbs down ,, what do they have in their driveway a Ford Focus
Thumbs down wasn't for the car.
Just the presentation
I agree that the video is horrible. Should be presented by someone knowledgeable. This is a beautiful car that i would have liked to see more in depth.
I bet she drives a Prius!
Hello new sub🚘🚦
No dash??
Did this girl jusr wander into the car show?
None better!
WHERE IS THE PRICE??
I wasn’t looking at the car!
Sophie is hot !!!
She's a chunky version of Emma Watson.
She isn't chunky, just nicely curved! Those hips :)
Lesbians think so too
