How I fell in love with my ride:

My dad owned a brand-new 1957 custom 300. My brother & I were teenagers and thought this was the greatest ride. Although this is a 58 from N.C.,it brought back the nostalgia of the 50's. After much convincing, we bought it in 2000.I love how it looks, drives, and sounds.
