Post by: Kat on August 09, 2005 4:57 pm: You guys are awesome! Thanks for looking for me.

I guess I will stop looking for 57's and get to work on the Pontiac now. One sold at 50's this year for $10,500 and was noted as "rare wagon". She should be a perfect wagon for me ONCE I GET ALL OF THE SNAKES OUT :help:

Post by: Tom on August 12, 2005 3:34 pm: Ok, I have been reprimanded. That '57 "shorty's" is not a POS, but an excellent " parts car". Boy do I feel better now. :wink:
