If you are keeping up with the warp-speed trends of well-built frame-off rotisserie '57 Chevy's, you know a few important key points... They are Extremely Popular, Very Collectable, Hard to Find, looks great and everybody envies their owners!

I love the feel and sound of this car and would not be afraid to take it anywhere! The engine has the perfect blend of torque, smoothness and light throaty sound through the exhaust. Hit the key and take off...it's that simple. This is a car for weekend car shows, Cruise-ins, Power-Tours, or just simple family fun on Sunday Drives. A Pretty BIG FISH in any-size pond comes with the ownership of this machine.

This tri-five has been completed about 10 years with about 28k tested miles... It has been a southern car most all its life and was well taken care of prior to its extensive frame-off construction... The project took 2.5 years to complete.

As I understand it and looking at the build book pictures, the body was completely stripped and refitted with new metal where needed... I have not found one hint of rust or bubbling anywhere on the car.

Things work as they should including but not limited to Headlights / Taillights, Signals, Interior Dash Gauges, Heat, Cold A/C, Speedometer, Electric Radiator Fan, Stereo, Wipers, Smooth shifting Automatic w/Overdrive, etc.... The Car also comes with an extensive Build Book of Construction images, many if not all of the receipts for the build and some memorabilia.

The design and results of this 57' feels like you are driving a luxury sports car, it is some-what low yet smooth riding, has an unbelievable throaty sound and just simply looks and feels super-cool!

Is this car Perfect? No and none of them are... that said, the paint is very nice, straight and deep, I have graded it an 8.5 out of 10, The horn is currently not sounding but it is probably a relay or fuse and lastly, the Temp Gauge is intermittingly working... I will look in to both these items. Note: When I noticed the temperature hand not moving this past weekend, I checked the temps and several engine points, and nothing was over 185 degrees, and this was on a 95-degree day. The only other thing that I can pick on the car is the driver side of the seat. There are zero rips, tears, stains, etc. but there is some slight wear in a small part of the insert. I also just noticed a very, very tiny door ding on the passenger side close to the bottom... you don't see it unless the car is up in the air.

Why am I selling it? Space, space, space... I am bringing a few more of my cars home and need to make room for them. There is one that is coming in out of a several years stay at a museum and then my Big '37 Cadillac Limousine just came back home.
