Restored 4.11 posi in back. Typically a utility sedan was ordered by traveling salesmen so they had room for what ever it was they were selling. A salesman wouldn't want a fuelie and a 4.10 posi. In this case it was for a different purpose, to go faster! It wasn't to save money, it was to eliminate weight. This is one of the rarest and coolest 57s anywhere! It certainly is a conversation piece wether in your collection, at a show or parking lot of a Dairy Queen! I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum.
