New Member from New Mexico, not new and not Mexico.  I have been working on Bronco's 81-94 along with some F150's of the same vintage.  While surfing for parts I found this 57 for sale, just like I drove in high school.  Mine was all white and yes I'm old.  84,000 original single family garaged for 40 years.  It's a 312 4V auto, the engine turns over but does not run. It's now setting in my shop waiting for some TLC.  The inside is just as clean and looks like it was redone custom some time in it's life.  I'll get some pictures later today and add them below. Now the search for parts for this 57.

Yes, Welcome! We do love pics, and don't be afraid to ask a question just because it may have been answered in the past. It's been a lot of years since I've said this, but being a one year/one make forum, it's impossible to avoid redundancy.
That's a great looking ride you acquired!  I'm in NM frequently! May do a show in Red River in April(?)

OK not sure whats happened as pictures etc are now working even though it says I have timed out.  Guess I just need to learn this forum as it is not like any other I visit.

Two IS better.just ask Jeff Norwell.  That second one looks really solid. Another NM car?
I probably have shows coming up fairly soon in NM, please PM me with your phone and town you live in.

Rich, stay clear of those NM car show shootings!

RICH MUISE

Yeah...at 10pm, it was probably a younger crowd driving Mustangs, Chargers, and Cameros. Twice this year already, at the same intersection in Amarillo, there have been bad accidents/deaths resulting from street racing chargers and cameros in TRAFFIC!!
That shooting in Las Cruces was at an unsanctioned car meet.

What is an unsanctioned car event?  The morning entertainment show also used the term 'unsanctioned'.

Not sponsored by a group or club. Alburquerque has a facebook page where occasionally guys posting talk about just meeting up somewhere. Actually, I do one every Saturday night down on 6th street in the summer. In Amarillo, historic 6th st. is the old rt66. I've been doing it for 10+ years. It's down to less than 10 people now, unless the local lowriders join up with us.
