1957 sor

I just picked this 57 up yesterday. I put it in storage out of the weather for now. I will post more pictures when I take it to the shop for a good cleaning and evaluation. What I have found out so far is it a 1957 Ca built. It is a very early 57 based on the serial number but has wheel well cut outs not usually seen until 59-60 BUT that is not unheard of.

Great find. Is the interior original? Maybe Airstream was trying out the 59 wheel well configuration. Good luck and don’t forget the pictures.

The interior is pretty rough some parts are missing. It will need a shell off renovation.
