Memories of a 57 Ford

The first car I ever drove (on the road legally) was my parents 57 Ford Custom 300. I did some customizing, four barrel carb, fender skirts, dual hollywood mufflers, decal pinstripes, and floor shifter. Later I purchased a 57 Ford Convertible of my own but the Custom was always my favorite. Had been looking for another 57 Custom for some time and this one came up on e-bay so we went to Delaware to take a look and drove her home. This car is exactly like the one I used to drive only the first one was all black. The car has had an older restoration and has a 272 y-block engine. We have had a lot of fun driving it around.
