This thing has certainly seen better days. Has a hemi and what might be factory AC. Not sure what other options are lurking inside of it. Last registered in 1992. $7000 seems high considering the condition.

Hmm... A 57 New Yorker with a four bbl carb, should most likely be a 392 hemi (??)

Sadly, that's kind of where the price needs to be on a rough 4 door sedan with a 392
It's not worth restoring at that price but you have to outbid it's value as a collection of parts
This is a similar fate for many of the 57/58 Imperials

Looks like a solid car. What is that can next to the AC compressor?
Might it be a "Cool Can" for putting dry ice in to cool the Gas?

yeah depends on the rockers/floors/trunk pan. That ac system has to be worth something

if its clean its a 5-6k car if not its 3-4k.

it looks pretty clean sheet metal wise, the thing looks nasty inside(dirt mold, mouse crap, etc)

Definitely looks saveable, if that hemi moves a bit, looks like the car was in the garage being run over by mice.

That's a great entry level project car, looks like rockers need some work and lower quarters. 4 door's are easy to get parts for(door panels) etc etc.
