  Always good to have another 57 in the stable.  From the pictures it looks pretty straight.

Just needs freshening up and a colour change

Nice looking.  Looks to have been used "gently".  Rust free?

[hiball3985]

Very nice find.

A little more re assembly when it comes home next week
Cheers,John

4-5 months.....not bad at all. Looks good in blue, and that's a nice shade.

It ain't perfect Rich, it's gonna be a driver, I know of too many cases of people who spend years and buckets of money restoring cars and never getting to drive them
Cheers,John

[rovohn]

At least I can spend as much time as I like putting it back together

Nice score on the Ranchero! Looks like a good color too. Should be driving this summer as well!

Latest pics
When I brought the car home it briefly ran then quit, found out the 41 year old nylon timing gears weren't up to the task anymore so I installed brand new timing set  and woot, she runs
