Ford (EOM) by Marlowe Johnson #41621.11

Marlowe, you surprised me on this one. Not a Bel Air, but a bit reminiscent of your '57. (EOM) by Steve Kiraly #41621.11.1

Yeah, I'm a walking contradiction, 'eh? You're not alone. As you know... by Marlowe Johnson #41621.11.1.1

if the Chevy is a 283 - im in (EOM) by Ron Dietrich #41621.12

Note the "Chevrolet" script on the hood, without a "V" - this one's a six. by Steve Kiraly #41621.12.1

D'oh! You posted while I was searching around for a good pic of a '57 150 V-8, Steve. (EOM) by Gene Herman #41621.12.1.1

PIC (1:1) Don't think it is, Ron. Assuming it's 100% stock, it would have a "V" badge on the hood... by Gene Herman #41621.12.2

I like that one, Gene. For some reason, the '57 150 has always appealed to me. (EOM) by Steve Kiraly #41621.12.2.1

PIC (1:1) I like the '56 style rear fender trim on the 150. Of course, the original upholstery...... by Gene Herman #41621.12.2.1.2

Of course there are tons of exceptions but generally speaking, back in the day... by Marlowe Johnson #41621.12.2.2

I like the Ford, it's a little dressier for a base model. (EOM) by Gene Mills #41621.17

Ford! I always have had a thing for the '57. (EOM) by Randy Charles #41621.18
