Fresh Clean Images of a remarkable model museum quality work here......even though it precedes JFK by half a decade,this car, to me, is a poster boy for the coming age of the new Camelot

Great model for functionality and wish I had the DM mint version but

I wish one of the mints would have made the Fairlane 500 Hardtop or convertible. I never cared for the extended rear panel dimensions or the roof line of the hardtop convertible. Every mint did a 57 Chevy in every body style so why not a 1957 Ford? I imho like it better than the Chevy and think it would have sold well.

Extremely sharp / outstanding pics. Thought about it - never pulled the trigger.

Got it, love it along with the black/red version. Agree with the detail on the retractable.

Once again I believe Tony's pictures back in the day is the reason I own these.

I agree Mark, we should have gotten more variations on the '57 Ford. This one is a beauty, my fav color of all that were made by DM or FM.
