Re: '57 2Dr Sedan

Well, the cousins made it to the car show and back home tucked away for the night. Not a problem with either one. Didn't run the 57 hard, 'tween 55-60 all the way. Nary a hiccup, temp gauge right at 180-182 with 180 thermostat installed, oil pressure about 40+. Really pleased at the show, lots of comments on the '57 altho didn't drive away with a award or trophy. I'm okay with that, not looking to fill a trophy case with $25 and under trinkets. Just had a really enjoyable time motoring along to and from. Great times in some classic American Iron.

Will start a car show thread in the GD forum, actually remembered to bring my digital this time, LOL.

I will be looking for that Thread.

I have always liked the 1955 and 1957 2 door Post car more than the Hardtop.
