Here's a few pics of tri fives on car haulers I've saved. The pic of the 57's is a little small but it's the only pic I've ever found of the 57's on a car hauler. Form all the pics I've seen they were usually pretty random.

Huh, I haven't seen the green one. There's a purple one and a green one, it looks like they both have different wheels on them. The purple one has the dull chrome, the green one has bright chrome that doesn't look like the rest of the chrome in the kit.
