    Was this a factory color scheme for a 57 Dodge?
    For the darker gray color, a google search turned up “Stone Gray” , but from what I can find, it might have been only for the pickups.
    IMO, it looks great on this car.

    Looks like Moonstone Gray and Metallic Charcoal. Pic of the data plate would tell me more. Your car?

  3. There was a '57 Dodge color combination that was charcoal and salmon, although I don't know the exact name of the paint colors used. I was nine years old, a tech sergeant at the local Air Force base had a four-door Dodge with that color combination. He was the father of the fourth-grade classmate who was my secret crush. Don't know what happened to the car or her. Moved away the day after Halloween, heartbroken. Soon learned there were plenty of other pretty girls and neat cars. Haven't seen that color combination since.

    Not mine, just a pic that my son was asking about.
    I had a 57 Coronet 2-dr in gold/white like this Custom Royal……long gone now

    BTW, what year did Chrysler products stop using the handbrake as a means of parking?
    2nd generation of the TorqueFlite transmission ?
    It was a common feature for many years.
