Trust me. If I had the room, It would probably be in my garage. Just thought I would share, that there IS potential out there.

You have a good eye. The 60s seem to have just evaporated off the face of the earth. Jay
It appears that post for the 57 was one year ago, think it's still around?
As far as being potential out there...I have mixed thoughts about that as far as how much is actually left. We hear about the guys that seem to run into the really good stuff...and for sure there's some out there, but then you hear stories about guys trying to find stuff and can't. I was talking to a guy here in phoenix last Saturday about a friend of his who wanted a '57 custom 2dr for a build. After looking for quite a while ended up buying one out of Washington state. His friend lives here in Phoenix..as in A-R-I-Z-O-N-A..and had to buy one from the Northwest??!! He drove all the way up with a trailer to get it, and as you could have guessed, was disapointed upon a close inspection, but bought it anyway. LOL..that kinda dampened my hopes of finding hordes of them hiding here.
Of course you still have the hoarders, like my two friends in Ok. and Tx. that own over a hundered of them combined. (most of which I have not seen)
The post date is from last year, I wonder if its still there. I'm glad I dont have a lot of money to spend. I'd be buying cars left & right.
I called him and left a message. Hopefully he will call back. He just put this up today. This 57 Merc looks nice!

I called the guy. He still has it. Says it would make a good parts or resto. Unfortunately they are in snow right now. Or else he would post more pictures.
