Welcome 57 Ford fans....

Acton, Massachusetts. Home of Captain Issac Davis of the Minutemen..next to Concord, mass. 30ish miles east of Boston on Route 2. There is also an Acton in California..seems like up in the Sierra's, was going to visit just for grins when I lived in Calif., but never made it. I do believe both Actons were named after a town in England. There is also an Acton Mechanical company here in N. Texas...I enquired once out of curiosity...the owners name was Acton.
Ha, so we have a Richard Acton and a Rich from Acton...cool.

New to the Forum, really excited!  Last time I thought about getting my Custom 300 Fordor road worthy I couldn't find any internet resources.  The little browsing I have done in the last week has been very informative!  272 is stuck and has been for at least 20 years. Plans are 351W with Aod and get it moving under its own power.  Then the real work begins.  Thanks all in advance for your help and knowledge.

Hey guys new to the group from Maryland, just picked up a '57 Sunliner from Massachusetts. Original West Coast car, 312, 3 speed, has an older restoration on her, but she still looks pretty good.

I have big plans when the time and money permit, but for now I'm happy just to cruise around.

Can't wait to learn more!

Welcome, I love the red and white paint scheme.  You must be a happy man.

This is my first sign-in and I am so glad to be here. I am from Ontario Canada and this year I aquired a 1957 Skyliner. It is painted in a modern white finish with a red and white leather interior. I am working  on it through the winter, replacing all the brakelines and doing an in place rebuild of the 312. I will post some photos when I figure out how to.

Meryy Christmas to all,
Fred

Welcome to the forum, Fred. Thanks for the intro. Very knowledgeable guys here, can answer just about everything.
If your pics are in your computer, click on the "add files" button below. Your pic file size may need to be reduced some. If you need help with that, let me know.

So here are some photos of my 57 Skyliner. The driveway photo is on the day that it was delivered from Alberta in March of this year. The truck in the background is the 51 GMC that I owned but sold to make room for the 57 Skyliner. My friends gave me the nickname of "flatbed fred"!
