Do you have any old photos of it, also what color was it...I might have seen some old pics of it in the past.

the car was painted orange on the sides and white on the hood, roof, and trunk. it was also raced by cliff nelson who sold it to my brothers.

I know Tom Dickerson from Hamden, CT drives one of Joe's '57 it is a 210 yellow 2 dr hardtop. I hope this helps. Tom is associated with CT Classic Chevy.

thanks for the response. i found a picture on their website. it is most likely the same car, but sure looks docile without its racing colors and wheels.
