39 years...that's awesome. Great looking car. Are your back wells tubbed? Your son is one lucky guy...great to keep it in the family.
Since they recently deleted the post count, it's hard to remember all the members here and be able to tell when someone is doing their first post..which I believe this is...so welcome to the forum to you and your son. Thanks for posting the pics, an engine and interior shot would be great also.

Badblu57:

That is one very BADDD looking 57 Fairlane.  Love to see more photos, on or off the strip.  Welcome to the site and nice to keep the car in the family.  Sad for me that neither my son or daughter picked up on my love for cars, to them cars are just another way to get from here to there.
