For those intrested here is my 57 I sold many years ago, I owned her for 30 years and was my high school car. Nothing was changed on her. WOW...what a feeling to see her again. I put in 5 years of blood sweat a tears on the restro job. I did everything except sew the front seats, of course a chromer did the rechroming.

So why did you sell it? Money needs like so many run in to?

Mind if I ask how you got the front end lifted on the car? Extended spindles by any chance?

Very Nice 57 , probably hurts to see it again ? I dont like to see my cars after I sell them , they bring back to many memories of younger times........pete

Beautiful 57. Like the above post, I don't like to see them after they're gone. When I sold my 55 Chevelle SS, I was glad it left town.

This car is right up the road from me. I just went to look at it monday.
Very nice but I wouldn't want to pay the price they are asking. Its very nice and I wish I had the talent to do this kind of work. D

The listing has been viewed over 2600 times, WOW what Chrome, did you own part of the vendors business that did all of the chroming for you. Can sure see why it took years ! Do you have a TriFive now?
