For Sale: 1957 Ford Custom in Mesa, Arizona

This 1957 Ford Custom 2-door sedan walks a cool line between great classic and true sleeper. So check out the vintage style mixed with terrific upgrades - including the 351 V8 and overdrive transmission.


This sleek red was made to grab attention. The more modern shine makes a great first impression, which is good because the '57 Ford is a car that was made to be seen. This was the debut of the tailfin, and this was the only year for the single headlight design with the restyled body. It's a unique appearance gave these coupes daring lines. A full-width grille, mirror-like wraparound chrome bumpers, and jet-inspire taillights complete this iconic package. It even feels correct right down to the factory-style hubcaps. But what's really impressive is that all the long sheetmetal and intricate details, that make this car a standout, are complete. It proves that this is a lovingly restored classic.


The two-tone gray interior is a nice mix of vintage style and new components. For example, you have two wide classic bench seats to fit plenty of family and friends. You can tell these are far more fresh than stock, and they now they have comfy cloth inserts for where you sit. This coordinates nicely with the door panels and dash for a full uniform presentation. You have classic elements like the horizon-like speedometer, but now the dash is dominated by great driver upgrades. You get a Lecarra sports steering wheel, large AutoMeter tach, and a full set of digital auxiliary readouts glowing below the dash. And while there's an upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo, we bet your real favorite soundtrack begins under the hood.


Under the hood is a Ford legend. The 351 cubic-inch Cleveland V8 is go-to for stout power, and this one was even rebuilt only around 800 miles ago. It really has the look of freshness with glossy black components, crisp wires, newer fan, newer booster, and Ford Motorsports valve covers. More than just look nice, this V8 has been upgraded for power with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer intake, electronic ignition, and a sweet sounding dual exhaust. The extra power gets to the ground with wider rear tires and limited-slip rear end. But this one is great for more than just power driving. Power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and a four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive make an easy all-around driver.


Classic looks that are upgraded in all the best ways. This is the restored Ford that you're going to love. Call today!!!
