WILL CONSIDER PARTIAL TRADE. SEE BELOW.

UPDATE: REPAIRS BEING DONE: Since there were no takers for a long time, I decided to go ahead an repair under carriage rust, do under carriage coating and will have it painted and looking at repairing motor . Of course the cost will be more, once the project has been completed I will know for sure how much to let it go for. Based on what I project the cost will be somewhere at around $21,000.00. I will add pictures as work is done.

The $21,000 is negotiable depending on what repairs I have done at time of your contact – it may yet increase more the more repairs I do. I will be going after the rust ..

It starts up, runs, drives and stops good;

ABOUT 90 PICTURES – ENJOY. Some of the bad, the ugly, but the overall good. YOU LIKE TO READ, you will have a better understanding of this vehicle, if you buy it.

WHATS NEW: The odometer shows under 17,600 miles, which I see as 117,600. I had the following put into it a new carburetor, a complete tune up; new spark plugs and wires, distributor cap etc., new disc brakes and new brake booster, replaced some of the brake lines. The two mirrors and antenna are in the trunk

PRIOR OWNER: I bought this car about 7 years ago from the second owner who had it since 1961. He had it undercoated many moons ago. I can see some of the undercoating still hanging on. Looks like he had the bumpers redone, they look great. He also replaced the door runners at entrance, they look new.

THE ENGINE: A 272 CID V8/ Two-Barrel Carburetor:

Starts up immediately, runs great. I can see several oil leaks (pictures included)

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: Automatic 2 speed, runs/drives great.

BRAKES: Professional Mechanic installed bolt on Disc Brakes and Booster, they work great

WHY SELLING: The reason I am selling one of my three old vehicles is because I over extended myself and it takes too much time to move cars on my driveway. Our plan to build a three-car garage fizzled out. Recently I have acquired vertigo when I lay on my back, besides my on going back problems and sciatic pains I have. So much for my sad story. Eventually I might just end up with one vehicle.

I have/had 3 other vehicles listed- two sold: STILL AVAILABLE 1957 Ford Custom ForDor LISTING #1382070 ((((((1956 Chevy Pickup LISTING #1365987 THIS ONE SOLD ON 9-1-2020 ; ALSO SOLD on 5-3-2021 the1928 Chevy Rod Pickup LISTING #1382074 )))))) ; My goal now of the two 57 Fords, is to sell one more and keep the other, and if a trade is involved, I can turn around and sell it; it being a lower cost vehicle maybe more easy to sell.

NOTE: IF SOMEONE WITH MONEY WANTS TO BUY ALL now two 1957 Fords, I am open to offers.

1957 FORD CUSTOM 300

SALE/TRADE: Would prefer the $21,000.00 cash; but as an ALTERNATIVE, I will take $11,000.00 minimum cash and a 1974 or prior years vehicle at an approximate value of $10,000.00, which may include reasonable cost of shipping to me, to be considered, depending on vehicle and location -, the vehicle must be running in good condition.

To be helpful to inquiries, I decided to compile the additional information to hopefully answer more of the general questions. I am interested in selling so I am looking forward to offers.

The Vehicle Description is all correct based on what I know of the 1957 Ford Custom 300.It starts good, runs good and brakes good; and as you can see from the pictures it can look good. The prior owner had the 57 for over 55 years before selling it to me.

The reason I decided to sell it, is that I do have 7 cars: 3 family cars and 4 oldies. Our plans of building the big garage are not materializing, so my drive way is crowded. Age is creeping up on me with some physical health issues.
