If I'm not mistaken, your uncle's "Ch3vy" is a 61 model. I wonder what Tom McCahill would have said about GM build quality if that barge was flung around the track like the others in his torture test film? :laugh: 

Cool that you still have your family's 1957 Dodge after all this time. And it's still looking good too. I'll bet you had to put some time and effort into the body though to keep it looking so good.

 Neil, I know you are the 57 Dodge expert but do you know as much on the 58's ?  My first car was a 58 Custom Royal, don't know if it was a Canadian or US built car, but the upholstery was US type and it had a B wedge engine with a 2 barrel carb.   It was also a Spring SPecial with the extra trim.  At the same time I owned it another guy on my street also had a 58 CR that had the same upholstery US style and a " B" engine and 2 barrel carb.   At the time I didn't know about spring specials so we wondered why mine had more trim than his.   What would be the chances of finding two US built CRs on the same street the same year in a medium sized Canadian city ?   What  I am saying is if these were Canadian built cars they were identical to the US versions.    I got that car back in 1974 and have been wondering for all these years where it was built. 

For a car living in the rust belt,  it fared well for the 20 years.
