1953 DeSoto Station Wagon - Copperhead SRT53
We take a look at the Taylor family's future Power Tour rideAfter attending the '08 Power Tour(r) in Little Rock, Arkansas, hot rod builder Dennis Taylor (Dennis Taylor's Reproductions) and his wife, Debbie, decided they wanted to be part of the fun. Unfortunately, they didn't own a good road trip-ready rod. Noticing how easy it is to become lost among the thousands of similar muscle cars and hot rods on the Tour, Dennis decided to be as unique as possible and resurrect a '53 De-Soto wagon. Dennis fabricated a new chassis, building everything from the control arms to the rearend housing. To get it as low as the rendering by Brian Stupski of Studio PCK (problemchildkustoms.com), the body was channeled over the new frame, and Air Ride Technologies bags brought it the rest of the way to the ground. Though we would have had a hard time leaving out the original 276ci Firedome, at least it will keep it in the family, thanks to a 6.1 Hemi crate engine and five-speed automatic, which should have it cruising the freeways like a Magnum.inline_mediumwraptextrightThe '53 DeSoto wagon has a ways to go before completion, but the stance is perfect.30763593/featuredvehicles/hrdp_0911_1953_desoto_station_wagonhrdp_0911_03_z+ 1953_desoto_station_wagon+driver_side_view.jpgTrue
