6Cyl,
   They must not use salt where you are. If they did, by summer your car would be rusted to H#%&! Lol! Nice to see the pics of your car again.
Thanks,
Tim :unitedstates:

When I was in junior high, my parents had already put my '57 'away'.  I have five cousins, all boys...was a house full.  A couple of old maid sisters gave the oldest a dove grey '57 Custom Tudor...six three speed with a cracked block.  This is 1964 Michigan and most '50s cars were already rusted junk.  The old maids did not drive in the winter and the car froze up the second winter.  Cherry barn find for free!!!!  That car got us all through high school.  It was pasted from brother to brother.  292 after 292 and finally a 352.  Tranny after tranny.  My cousins and I would save up lunch money and farm hand earnings to pool for gas, oil, a tire, or whatever the Grey Ghost needed.  To have a ride to football games, high school dances, or the A&W was big stuff.  The Grey Ghost rested in the orchard for many years and is now long gone.  But when my cousins and I get together, we laugh til we have tears rolling down our faces about missions with the Grey Ghost.  When my cousins were in Vietnam, we exchanged cassette tapes.  We always included minutes of burping and farting contests but more importantly, Grey Ghost burn outs.  It was a big hit at the outposts.  Somewhere, I still have junior high sketches of Grey Ghost with the gasser stance and flames.

I love that car, it so reminds me of my first 57. I suggest you send it to my house where it's warm and dry  :003:

thanks guys, I should have done some black and white.
When I am out rid-n , I always looking for a cool back ground for a picture.
Glad you guys like the pictures, I will keep posting them when I get them.
Usually trying to make it so you cant tell what year it is. Its hard to keep
it from looking like a tree or pole is growing out of the roof or fender. Like one
of the ones in front of the barn.

Emm.... Not really.  But I think you need to get closer & frame your subjects by watching the outside edges of your viewfinder.  Just my 2 bits.
