    It really is funny how ford made it to battle the corvette but it went the luxury route by the consumers instead. The T-Bird was a beautiful car and they had some nice ones through the years for sure! The SC and the Turbo coupe were some of the ones to remember. This pretty bird won't last long.

    I was in Huntsville AL, 130 miles from your place, in 1977. I was 8 years old and remember very well all those "tornado watch" and "tornado warnings" given on TV at that time. In one of those occasions we took refuge in the basement of the house, but luckily nothing happened...

    Pretty T-Bird. That old "Y" Block is puffing a lot of blow-by out the engine vent (no PCV in 57) as shown in the undercarriage shot, so may be getting a bit tired. As another mentioned, the Y-Blocks had top end oiling issues, especially back in the day of non-detergent oils. The 312 c.i. engine came out in '57, but this could still have a 292. She's an eye-catcher for sure.

    My grandfather had the exact same T-Bird with a black exterior and same red interior.
    He sold it during the gas crisis in 74 because he thought he should get a car with better gas mileage. He sold it for $600 dollars. 😂🤣😂

      Better color combo. This one looks very nice, but red is a no-go for me.

    Nick, that is a gorgeous T-Bird! And the price? Unreal. That'll sell quick. I defy anyone to find a better 57 for less money. You guys sell the best!

    For today this 57 T bird will live in infamy, for she will out live all the body styles before her and so give her do. Because this car is a true classic from the word go and I do not think you will see better in your life. Old Master Gunnery SGT USMC.

    truly an icon. but if you are taller than 5'8", you will find it difficult to operate. the interior space is very very small and cramped. seats cause numbness in my legs.

    What’s up with the one exhaust pipe? On the undercarriage drive it looked like there’s a disconnected exhaust pipe that vents straight down.
