Please keep us updated with additional videos on the resto project. Best of luck to you. Looks like a labor of love, Any chance you are going to add the continental kit and a Paxton supercharger?

[Dulein]

Yeah Thunder Road! It also puts me to mind of an early Bond film where the bad guys were driving a black 57. From Russia With Love? Dr. No?

[carsmasher]

@Dulein That was the Bond film Thunderball.

so you guys scored a collection of 57 fords? shame seeing cars that someone collected for years just rusting away...plans on restoring these or parting them out? i just watched probably all of your vids on the 57's LOL

[dowopper51]

@HotRodAlley Chances are if they didn't store these cars when they did they probably wouldn't have been around today. They didn't have much of a value in the 80s & early 90s.

Whats the "latest" on all these old rides? Why were they moved from their

resting places, to be sold and restored? I stumbled into your videos by the

way. I own a 66 Galaxie 500.

My father had one in 1957 with the same colors.
