Location: Williams California | I have a '56 Windsor that has New Yorker trim installed at the factory, so perhaps '57 was the same.

Location: So. Cal | It's not original on a '57 Windsor wagon unless it was custom ordered that way, which can be proven by the IBM card.... but is unlikely. The '57 Windsor could have come with nothing as in the brochure picture, or with a single, shortened spear. The trim sheet seems to include the Windsor wagon with the Windsor 2-tone sweep as a possibility, but I have never seen one built with it, and the trim sheet doesn't mention the suburban in that section beyond the title. |

Location: Lower Mainland BC | I don't think that the trim sheet I posted needed to flag each and every trim piece as being for a Suburban. If C75-1 = Windsor and C75-2 = Saratoga, C76 = New Yorker. Item 9 gets a special mention for a C76 Suburban (as one of the applications).
Even assuming that Windsor = the lowest overall trim level of any Chrysler, it does NOT rule out the possibility that it was ordered with the C76 New Yorker Town and Country (Suburban) side trim. If that car was mine (and it won't be), I would be painting the space between the trim the roof colour.
Something like this:
