Vehicle Description
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!!!
