TWO THOUGHTS...
1) Isn't it sad that a "picture is NO LONGER worth a thousand words?".
2) I remember when ONLY professional wrestling was FAKE. Now with "AI", EVERYTHING is Fake!

@georgeschire Same with video, so much fake bs trying to be passed off as legit.😡🤦
I like the '57 Ford color break personally. Plus the '57 is my favorite 50's Ford.😊

@geno I really like '57 Fords too but have passed on a few 1:1s over the years - I just can't get past that reverse hood. I was never a fan of any reverse hood - especially on full-size FoMoCo products of the 1950's/'60's.

@chris I agree Chris, I'm not a fan of them either, but I love the looks of the car.😊

"It amazes me...."
If that amazes you, then you'd be downright shocked and overcome with consternation upon learning of all my idiosyncrasies & dichotomous ways. Trust me, I can drive anyone nuts. 😏 😏 😀

"...but I love the looks of the car."
Yep, me too. I think the '57 Chrysler (Ply. Dodge, Chry, Imp. ) line-up was number one, but Fords - which outsold Chevrolet that year - had, IMO, a refined elegance. Everything was tastefully done, nothing over-extraverted, very clean & crisp! 😎 😎
