My dad used to cruise a black 57 with a 312 and paxton 'charger.

I'm sure he'd love to have that again.

That red/white is looking good!

One of my favorite body styles! The vintage Cal-Custom flat tail light lenses look real cool on these!

Very nice. I bet it looks gorgeous with all the chrome and everything put back on.

Looks good ! That was the first car I ever wanted, my father had one a 57 ford Fairlane 500 312 T Bird engine and Auto. I remember begging him to keep it for me until I was old enough to drive. He sold it in 1964 . Iwas 9 . This is what my father thought of the idea :screwy:
Wayne I still miss that car

She's a little cutie. My son is the same way in that he would help me all day with something like that, if I had a project to work on.

Love the car, but my favorite Ford from that era is the '56 Victoria. Paint looks great, and I would love to see it with all the trim pieces installed
