New here, thanks for letting me join
I?m 70 and finally have my dream car, a 57 ford
It has a 390 with automatic in it
I found it 60 miles from home
Drove it home, but it will need power steering and brakes, but I?m not going to take it all apart!
We want to drive this one

Welcome to the forum. That 2 tone green is one of my favorites. I agree....too nice to take apart. Make sure she's safe and reliable and drive it. If that Ohio plate is where you're at, You may have some time before summer gets here to work on it.

Beautiful car.  I am 72 and just got our 57.  We were leaving a car show with our 58 Thunderbird last year and we heard a teenagers say to his parents, "Why do old guys have all the cool cars".  You definitely have a cool car.  Enjoy it!

Old guys have cool cars because they no longer have kids at home......

When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!
