aussie CHRISTOPHER & GROUP, I DISAGREE WITH YOUR COMPARISON. THEY'RE 2 COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CARS. I THINK A BETTER 1957 COMPARISON, WOULD BE THE '57 PONTIAC BONNEVILLE WITH FUEL INJECTION. THIS WAS THE SAME TYPE CAR. THERE WERE 629 CONVERTIBLES BUILT & 484 300 C VERTS. I GRANT YOU, IT DID NOT RECEIVE MILESTONE STATUS, BUT SHOULD HAVE. I THINK A PUBLICATION DID A ROAD TEST COMPARISON ON THESE CARS. THERE WAS THE '57 CHEVY WITH FI & THE '57 STUDEBAKER SUPERCHARGED GOLDEN HAWK. '57.THE '57 T BIRD SHOULD ONLY BE COMPARED TO THE VETTE.
