Very cool Bill. When I was 17 (1965) I hooked up with a guy in Largo by the name of Allen Rose. He had a blk 57. When he bought it, it had a 283 w 2, 4barrels. Was an awesome car for the time. We would run around St. Pete and Clearwater racing al the muscle cars of that time. Went to Daytona in Feb. of 65 for the races and blew the motor. Came back to Clearwater and bought a built 327, think is was 375 horse. Great car, great times. The 56/57 models bring a lot of memories. Hope to run into you someday soon..........Tom
