Holy crap, what a gorgeous car! Such a difference from the fashionably cheerless “colors” of today. I hope its new owners treasure it as much as you have.

What a beauty! The 1958-only Studebaker-Packard "J" body bears a remarkable resemblance to it. This could be the nicest '57 Chrysler in existence.

Volocars have a couple of '57 New Yorkers and a 300C but they are all north of $190000.

In 1957 Chrysler's entire line was given the Motor Trends' "Car of the Year" award and the Industrial Design Institute gave Exner and his styling team a gold medal. But it wasn't just the styling, 57 saw Chrysler use for the first time Ball Joints, Torsion bar suspension, and Vynl wiring with plastic connectors. The Chryslers were lower, the suspension tighter so they handled like sports cars. I know because I had a 57 DeSoto Fireflight in the 70s and I was the terror of L.A. freeways!

That is a real beauty. My Uncle Tony drove the 4 door version of this car. I can't remember if it was a hardtop or a sedan. It had the 2 headlight design, since the 4 headlight system was still illegal in NJ at the time he bought it. It looks much better with 4. It met its demise in 1961. My uncle had it parked at his country place in PA, but had not set the brake. Someone had leaned into the trunk to get something, and the car started rolling, and went right into the lake. Remember, these cars did not have a 'PARK' position on the transmission. You HAD to set the brake, which my uncle failed to do. He replaced it with a 62 Chrysler 300 Sport 4 door HT. Black with red interior. It was sharp!

It is amazing how Chryslers base model car Windsor. This was Chryslers' least expensive offering in 1957, and it was so luxurious.

Beautiful. Original CA plates in 1957 would have been yellow with black letters. The black plates came out in 1963 and everybody (almost) tossed the yellows in the trash. Maybe new owner will put yellows back on.

The 1957 Chrysler Windsor is a Royal classic. ( The only thing I would change is the straight steering column. I would substitute it for a safety rack and pinion steering system.)

We had a '58 Windsor 2-door from 1964-67. Ours was blue instead of red. It had been mostly garaged since new, but by '64 it was ragged. The front seat was replaced, the build quality was terrible. The paint was nothing like what you see here. Even with 50K on the odo, I'd be amazed if this car hadn't been completely rebuilt. The carb on ours was terrible - the electrical system was a disaster - the neutral start switch used to break. By the 60's this car looked like old hat, style-wise. BUT...in retrospect, a rolling piece of art? Agreed.
