[Ironhorse]

Must say I have always given kudos to my wife for talking me into keeping the '57 thru the years. When I was working so much overtime thru the years just the thought of finding the time to work on the '57 was totally a foreign concept at the time. Got the big time itch to really dig in and get a restore going after I retired. Not getting any younger and wanted to enjoy my first ''big boys toy'' again. I had a loose moment years ago and sold my '65 Impala SS with a 300hp/327, 4 speed, buckets and console with factory tach which I regret to this day. Can't even imagine how I would feel today having sold that '57 years back. I bought it for $500 and drove it 35 miles home. Can't buy a decent front clip for $500 in today's tri-five world. She's a good gal who loves old time rock and roll, car shows and after 50 years together she's a keeper.
