I'm sure that everyone has their favorite 1957 MY classic, but it's hard to believe that the iconic 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air is not one of the 5 represented here.

Or the Ford Fairlane 500 hardtop.

For one, I'm glad there's no '57 Chevy- they're everywhere in just about every form you can imagine- and some you probably can't- wouldn't surprise me if someone somewhere sells condoms with the things emblazoned on them!
It's nice to see something different for once!
Personally I think a '57 Nash Ambassador would've been a good choice, but I'm weird. LOL!

or the forgotten 1956 Chevy who could be a good choice and I agree with spots about a 1957 Nash Ambassador and let's add a 1956 DeSoto Adventurer or Plymouth Fury to the list. (and if AMC had let Nash continued to survive to 1958, here what might have been if there was a 1958 Nash Ambassador http://www.whatifcars.com/gallery/What-If-Cars/58_Ambassador )
I wonder if someone could retouch with Photoshop pictures of Accord coupe/sedan, Camry, Altima, etc... to add tailfins? ;-)

I never understood the fascination with 57 Chevy's either. Compared to everything else offered that year, they're downright dumpy. Too tall, too round.
Glad they included the 300C, but my favorite car of the late 50's is the 57/58 DeSoto Adventurer. Virgil Exner was the best designer of that era by far.
