The last owner has passed on a file documenting the car's restoration undertaken prior to her purchasing the car, which is in its original Data Plate colour scheme of Gunmetal Grey Metallic (NN) with complimentary two tone black and white interior. (Trim Code "XA") I have always wanted a '57 model T'bird and have purchased the car as a private collector. (codes added, picture updated)
