gman Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Nicely done- that paint is beautiful. Add some nice period custom touches like the chrome wheels, exhaust cutouts, grille insert and some stance, and that amounts to a great build in my book.

Agree with Rich. Remember your builds from the forums and magazines. So cool to see you posting on the forum again. Look forward to seeing more. 57 is clean, like how you customized in your own style and the usual specialty paint work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamadon Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I really like this 57, especially the filled hood and Buick grill. You don't see that much. That color ain't half bad either. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
