Great pics John! A lot less over-the-top, styling-wise, than the Merc Turnpike Cruiser, but, to me, a lot more appealing!

I agree Tony.  Also, the colors really help this car.

My favorite of the four Danbury Mint '57 Mercury's.  Great pics John!  Though you don't have a pic of the "top up", I think it is a unique look.

@perrone1 Me too. I wish they had done the Turnpike Cruiser hardtop w/o the continental kit.

Bob;  Although I'm not a big fan of this era Merc, I must say that the pink/black you refer was amazing and did wonders for it.
