Re: Show your tow vehicle (TVOTD)
I never had a '57 but did have a 1950 Olds "Sedanette" with a 57 J2 engine and trans. The only thing I didn't like about the trans was that it would shift no matter what gear the selector was in. Just couldn't hold a gear long enough for me. But, those 3 carbs had a sound all their own when trounced.
Other than that it was a real "Sleeper" in it's day. Too bad a friend of mine wrecked it.
I had a chance to buy a '57 2 door with a 3 speed stick for $1,500.00 about 20 years ago. But, I screwed up and didn't buy it.
