Observation...I haven't received my 48 Chevy yet but

I understand that the same factory that made this one also made the 55 through 60 thunderbirds plus numerous corvettes. Is it a possibility we may see a repaint of the 57 Bird from DM?

never cared for the pink and the white wall tires are too wide in my opinion. They almost look like

Gangster white walls.

Yes for a repaint of the 1957 T-bird. I didn't like the pink one, so I'm ready to order any other color.

IMO...the '57 was the best looking Bird of 'all'; so, I got the DM / '57 coral and don't regret it.

But, if DM ever does a repaint of their '57...I'm 'IN'!

They did a coral? I guess I missed that one.

DM '57 T-bird is Dusk Rose (pink as some see it), not coral.....

My mistake. Coral is more of an 'orange'. The '57 is Dusk Rose...'pink'.

My '57 Bird still looks good sitting in the case next to my FM '55 Sunliner / two-tone blue.
