Welcome to StreetDreamsTexas as we celebrate our 22nd year in the
classic and muscle car business. Ford's new models for 1957 were
longer, wider, lower, and sleeker than the well-received 1956
versions. Their styling was particularly simple for the period,
with a blunt face, a clean full-width rectangular grille, tasteful
side moldings, and small tailfins. They were so popular that Ford
actually outsold Chevrolet for the first time since 1935, selling
about 1.7 million cars to Chevrolet's 1.5 million. And thanks in
part to a longer wheelbase, the '57 Fords offered a smoother ride
than their Chevy competitor. Driving around in this sweet 1957 Ford
Fairlane 500 is like taking a step back in time, albeit a very
comfortable one. Fire up the correct 292 V8, slip the Ford-O-Matic
automatic transmission into drive, and you're off on your next
adventure. It's truly amazing how many friendly waves and smiles
this sweetheart generates, making it an ideal choice with which to
enter the classic car hobby. This smooth-riding cruiser is sporting
nice upholstery, trim, glass, dash, and gauges, a straight body,
and the excellent chassis and floor pans are clearly visible in the
images provided. The car is relaxed and comfortable at highway
speeds, turns well, and brakes in a straight line. Another
affordable classic from the Texas Hill Country's premier source for
classic car and trucks. Street Dreams (830-997-1950) is a full
service dealership that can assist with worldwide delivery,
insurance, and financing options.
