57 FI Barn Find

[Bruce B.]

Here are a few pictures of a late 57 I just purchased.
Came from California in 1966 and sat since 1969.
Currently set up set gasser (straight axle, Olds rear, stroker motor+++++) but all original parts are there including original 283 HP engine (FI is a incorrect 4900R).
Lots of NOS parts, actually an unbelieveable number of NOS parts.
See attached pics.002.jpg003.jpg004.jpg

Now the fun begins.

Re: 57 FI Barn Find

Congrats, Bruce. That's what I live for...except for the Bud Light. If that's yours, you and my youngest son have a lot in common.

Re: 57 FI Barn Find

This is the kind of adventure that we all dream about. Now, the question is....
What are you going to do with it? Restoration, Gasser, or LandSpeed racer?
BIG decision.

Bruce,
Nothing new in my Private Messages. You still typing? I did check to see if my PM box was full and there are only 8 PM's saved and you can save up to 50. But, I can't wait to see this project get done. It will be nice I am sure, just like your others.
