I went to see the car today. It's really not as bad as the photos would indicate. It's so covered with muck, and not being able to get in and poke around, it's kind of hard to assess. I was surprised that holes and blistering were minimal, considering. I've seen worse restored.

Odd thing is, some of the stuff that usually adds to the difficulty in a car from this era, like all the stainless and glass, is all pristine.

Really nice car show today. I think almost every '57 Plymouth in existence must have been there. Mike's little red '57 was stunning.
