This....I like...although I do prefer the dash painted.

This guy has another 57 Ford Custom for sale too...with a 428 and a 4-speed...nice...

Both cars are gorgeous!! I wish they had more pis of the blue 428 car, that looks stunning. I'm seriously liking the front seat in the one in the video though, the flip down armrests are a sweet touch.

I, too, liked the blue 57.  It looks to me to be a mild custom, with a 54 Chevy Grill and possibly 58 Ford quad headlights.  Can't really tell from the side photo.  I also liked the red/silver Custom 300, but would have liked to see the engine  compartment.  The engine had kind of weird sound idling.

That idle is very similar to my 'wagon. The mildest Edelbrock cam (Edelbrock#2122 cam,an "RV cam")...not really a hot rod idle. Basically one step above stock for low-end torque, dependability, and a good cruisin' motor with some grunt when you mash the loud pedal to change lanes.

Me ether , I like all my door handles, emblems, and trim all attached. I guess it depends on how you want to make your unmodern car have a modern look.
