Here are some shots I took of this very cool 57. One very cool thing to note is the owner bought this car on Dec. 6, 1956.
c&c always welcome.

I need to get my 55 out and try to shoot some. I like all your shots. But I see the attraction to 3. "If you want to buy happiness, spend kindness"

I don't think so, he lives in Yipsilanti, MI. and he drove it Lima, OH and Fairmount, IN. to shows over the years that I know of. I'm sure it does not get driven as much as it used to he is getting older, and has had some health issues. http://www.flickr.com/photos/pyrocars/

Its just not my taste, I agree, too. We used to say, "If it won't go, chrome it!", but who knows why some of these guys do what they do? One guy at a show last year has a gold plated radiator! He said he has bought two new cars his entire life this one and the new 300 he has now. I'd guess that, having it for all those years, he just didn't know where to stop?
