57 Skyliner

[Justin082]

Hey, hope everyone is doing great. I was given a 57 retractable. It’s in pieces and in need of some serious work. I would love to restore this car as I am planning to retire in three years from the Department of Education and would love to have this car to cruise. I am located in Bronx, NY. Any suggestions on a shop that can help me put this car together. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

I believe there are a couple of shops that advertise in Skyliner magazine. I remember one of them mentioned full restorations and I believe they were in the Northeast area of the country. Sorry I don't have any name/contact info.

Hi,
If you are serious about getting the car together it will take some money, effort and time.
There is a guy in CT about 2hrs from you who restores these cars on a full time basis. His name is Al Doner and his contact information is below.

I recommend you call him and not e-mail him

Where in the Bronx are you located?
Thanks
