C1 Here are pictures of my newly aquired 57
This car has been in Las Vegas for the past 40 years or so. I don't know where it came from originally but from the under side it is obviously a rust free western states car.
V.I.N. E57S102890
20 year old resto driven sparingly with driver quality paint.
Has a 57 passenger car engine with 4 speed. Car is too early for a 4 speed so it was a 3 speed new.
Hard top and soft top.
I paid $47000. and think it is well bought.

You stole it. I've been looking at '57's for years, and only raggedy ones have popped up for under 65-75k. Very nice car.

I was actually looking for a 58 and looked at everyone I could find on the net anywhere in the country. They all wanted MORE for like condition 58s so I felt I had to buy this car.
