New member in SoCal

Welcome to the best source of 57 Ford forums. Lots of knowledge here and some from those who saw the cars new on the lot. I started school that year, and my Mom had a 4 dr Wagon  bought in 1959. I've had a thing for 57 Fords ever since, owning 12 in my life. I believe that might qualify as an obsession .Again, welcome.

Welcome to this great 57 Ford specific site (although occasionally we stray a bit).  There is a wealth of information available here and some parts availability, if you can travel as far as Twenty Nine Palms or Hisperia.  Come on out to Knott's Berry Farm on April 19, 2015 and you can see quite a few of Southern California's 1957 Fords in the 1949 to 1959 area. The owners love to talk about their cars and can provide lots of good information.

Bud Kolar has a bunch of 57 Ford parts.  I've gotten a few pieces from him, but I've never been to Bud's place in Hisperia.  I have been out to Twentynine Palms to see Steve Pierce and his 57 inventory which is extensive.

How is Bud? I bought a few things from him a while back but the last couple of emails to him went unanswered

I don't really know how he is now.  I bought a horn from him in March 2011 and haven't been in touch with him since then.
