Nice! I built the '66 Fairlane from AMT.

I was about to turn 12 years old when the '57's hit the streets. What a year for car design by ALL the manufacturers!

I remember the '57 Fairlane 500 being a particular fav when I'd watch a black & white one go by my Safety Patrol post in Muncie, IN. AND... if you ordered the 312 V-8 and stuck on some glass packs, it really sounded good too!

Nice job on the model, but I want a real one!

My first car (in high school) was a 1956 Ford, baby blue and white, 312 T-Bird engine with dual exhausts. Good times in that car!

Always wanted the Ranchero version of the '57 Ford. In red and white.

I'm thinking something more along the lines of a full size one.
