Me too! John

 

Completely over the top early 60's kustoms...thats why I love them so much...

 

The 57 ford has such great lines making it a beautiful Kustom without doing much to it. They look awesome lowered and shaved. The body speaks for it's self

Not A -57 but my -58 under construction.

 

I started that thread when I was going to sell my 64 Bonneville and get a 57 Ford.. But the slow economy put the brakes on that deal..

I always liked the 57 Ford... Dark Emerald Green, black pleated interior, chrome reverse, extended shackels with scavenger pipes..

With a slight rake of course...

 

This one's alright.

 

That is probably the best 57 Kustom I have ever seen. Spot on perfect in every way. Beautiful ride

My favorite.

 

Man, that Dreamsville Ford is sweet! Love that front end. In fact, I can't find fault with anything on it. An amazing car.

Kind of reminds me of another '57 Ford custom in the back though: remember The Maze?

 

Froggen-
LOVE what you did with the taillights on yours, looks great!
Uhmmm, could you explain your license plate though?

Sancho-
Thanks! I'm liking all those!

'Mo-
I've always been kinda off-put by the wheels/tires on that (D'Agostino[?]) '57, but I did have the pleasure of seeing it in real life a number of years ago- I like the taillights most on it!
(I think it'd look way better on Astro's personally)

 

Good reason for that... it is (or was) "The Maze".

Wow--that's amazing! I had a funny feeling that it might be, when I commented earlier. Who knew?
