Tasteful resto-mod and dependable cruiser.

I am not a fan of louvered hoods.

I like the wheels and overall look.

I painted my 302 "Ford Red" because they used it in '57...but the block motor looks OK.

Nice, very nice, love the stance very similar look to the way mine's being built, but I've used slightly smaller profile tires on the front.

I wonder what interior code that car is, totally different seat and door panels than my "AU".
I have a rust hole in my passanger side inner fender well, It's 58 years old what do you expect?

Wow - I thought I was looking at my Ranchero.  I do have the proper 57 dog dish hubcaps.  Great price.

Ecode70D

   On second thought...They must be correct for a Ranchero.  When I bought this car, I was told that everything is correct.  Do you mean that I got cheated???

Don't recall ever seeing those on a Ranchero, I've only seen them with full or dog dish, the 58's had dog dish with the center being gold..
