Your impeccable luck with finding and then with little effort make run again is just crazy. I am happy for you and hope you do the right thing on fixing the rust issues.... or someone who buys it will.

Would love to see it back to blue

That is my favourite car. I was 15 when it was built. I’m 81 now. I loved hearing it start. Beautiful. I hope you can get it back to the original colour of blue

How exciting to rescue this classic!

Alexander you're the Fairy Godfather of rescued vintage vehicles and I'm looking forward to see what your magic wand will turn this in to.

Alex, we love seeing your kids work along side you! You have good kids. ❤

In 1956 our neighbor bought a brand new 56 Chevrolet. I was 8yrs. old and have wanted one of them ever since. In Seattle, 1980 we saw a 1957 chevy convertible for sale on a used car lot that sold old chevy's. It was a beautiful robin's egg blue and was selling for $13,000. Can't imagine what it would be going for today.

Watching Alex cleaning up the car was somehow fairly satisfying.

Love this car. Can’t wait to see it restored ❤

Well Alex, this 61 year old Nana really enjoyed this video lol. Hey, I enjoy all your videos, but I found this one really special and I love it when you take these old, beautiful classics, and return them to their former glory. I would’ve been afraid that many people would’ve scrapped the car and sold it for parts to people trying to replace pieces for their car like this. But you took this piece of rusted Mossey mouse infested hunk of metal and in two days you got other people dreaming of it. I can’t wait to see future updates of you restoring this beautiful beautiful classic❤

What a reservoir of knowledge dad has, the children are very fortunate to have his input and drive.

I'm sure the neighbors of the previous owners are super happy that you bought that mossy old eyesore, Alex. Great work getting it running so quickly!

looks amazing going to be interesting to see what you do with it ❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Love this video! I was born in 1957 and you are right about how desirable this car has always been! I wanted one and couldn’t find one I could afford. I hate these computerized cars with sensors that have to be replaced are more trouble than just taking care of the car,and checking for problems would be! Love the videos!

My neighbor had one of these cars in the 50s. He kept it shiny as a new penny. I hope you restore the blue color….thanks for great video.

I’ve really got to tell my dad about Alex’s channel. He’s love all these neat old cars.

Thank you for sharing. This has to be one of my favorites videos! A true diamond in the rough so exciting to hear it stat right up😊🎉.

Hearing that engine come alive made me smile! I do love seeing you take an old forgotten or discarded car and giving it life again. Can't wait to watch the restoration series.

Oh the memories! I love seeing it brought back to life! Cant wait to see the journey!

I really really want to see you fix this one up !! I’ve seen what you can do on the other ones ! I would love to see you get the dents repaired & rust replaced with metal !! It would look great that teal color or black . Can’t wait , I love these cars 😊👍

Old cars are so cool, the story behind the cars eliminate your purchase worries because it draws you in as a buyer . The cleanup is crazy satisfying to watch , imagine how many days outside the survivor has gone through be in your care is insane .

Looks like a winner. Good job Alex. You have a good eye for possibiilties. Waiting to see what you make of this classic.

That was awesome thanks for sharing this with us

Alex...you have instincts about old cars...the car whisperer! Amazing somebody didn't buy that car earlier...waiting to see how the restoration continues.

That’s a great project!! ‘57 Chevy, the American (and Canadian!!) classic. It will be fun to follow your progress. Keeping it original? 😊

Hello Alex how are you and your family, hope you guys are doing well. Love watching your videos all the time 👍💙💜💚❤️💖🦋🌈🌺🙏🏻from Edith in cairns Queensland Australia 🇦🇺

Try the lugs that have the shaft "collars" on the back that are used by a number of the aftermarket wheels as adapters. Those could possibly work for you. The '57 looks nice. I'm kind of spoiled with rust-free, being in Arizona. (Now if I could only afford them!) Keep up the great work! EDIT- I put this up before I could finish watching. Nice of him to bring you the right lugs!

So funny seeing the squirrel!! Never a dull moment on your channel!!! 🥰🥰🥰

Great buy Alex.... can't wait to see it done.❤❤❤

Very enjoyable! I started collecting at 12 I guess. Lots of good parts. Looking forward to watching it evolve.

I'm anxious to see this 57 running. If anybody can breathe life back into it, it's you.

Wow, Alex you sure have a “good eye”. Leaving your name and number for whatever tickles your Canadian fancy is a good idea. Hour and a half EARLY tow trucks is unheard of here in the USA. I appreciate your work ethics and the fact that your sons are willing to help you with restoration and short efforts you took to fix the damage panels.

OMG I love this project and to think I was a car content complainer ❤😂 I am 75 years old and you have no idea how appreciated I am for this restoration.😊

The squirrel being in the car was so funny. I was going to comment that at least it's not full of squirrels or raccoons.

Alex my darling. WOW, I can’t believe you brought it back to life. You are a master car restorer. Who ever ends up with the car is one lucky person. I know after you finish with it. The car will be a eye catcher. Congratulations, until next time. Take care and stay safe. Love ya 🍺🕊🌈😇🌹👍🙏🌞🇺🇸❤️

Great find! I love classic Chevy's! Amazing it started!! Looking forward to seeing it all finished.

Oh lordy, a 57 Chevy! Covet, covet, covet! Having learned to drive in an "on the column" car, I could even drive it! I even remember splashing gas in the carburetor. Those tires sure look like snow tires!

Good luck with your new project. 🍀 It’s gonna be a beauty ❤️

Woo hoo, it's a runner! With all of those spare parts, it's like a life size model car kit. I think that it would be very pretty in the original Robin's Egg Blue with a White roof, trunk and upper quarter panel. I'll bet that quarter panel moulding will straighten out. All in all, seems like a good purchase. Congrats!

It really is a cool looking car. And just a couple days of Alexander know-how and it's running! Would love to see it in it's original color. What a great one-owner find!

What a cool find. I've really missed your car videos so I can't wait to see this one come together!

I’m looking forward to following this car. You go Alex😃👍

She’s alive! Awesome!

I love it!!! It sounds sweet can't wait to see the first ride!! ❤❤ Thank you for sharing.

What wonderful memories this brought back for me. First 3 speed on the column I learned to drive in 1973. Thank you for your wonderful adventures you share

The original Blue color is gorgeous 😍

Wow! Sat for 40 years and it starts! Impressive. Nice job pushing out the dents Alex.

Everyone needs a 57' chevy in their life. It would be soo freaky if you started it and the radio came on with 50's music. LOL :) :)

What an awesome 57! I'm excited to see how it turns out! Thanks, Alex! 🎇💚☀️💜🌈💕

I was born in 1953, but this car was still very popular and plentiful when I was in my teens & 20's. It's still very desirable here in Tennessee!

Oh man this was a awesome video!! Love that car and I can't wait to see more!! I hope you decide to do some more work to it I'd love to see that. Great work Alex!! ❤

That was a great sound when it turned over!

The best 50's car ever made!! 20 years old and that's my dream car!

Sweet ride Alex!! I can't wait to see it back cruising the streets like it should be.

I can never pass by a '57 Chevy without stopping to get a photo. Excited to see what comes next with this one.

i am pretty sure this is the best 50s car to own because all the parts to fix rust and issues and what ever else are available.

Thanks for taking us on this journey with you! So exciting. So interesting. That pressure washer is the bomb!

I can't believe I am sitting here with a smile in my face watching this video! I am definitely not, nor have I ever been a car crazy girl, but I can't wait to see this car's transformation. I am sure the reason for my interest is because it takes me back to the late 60s watching my dad work on his 57 Chevy in our driveway. He loved that car. Fond memories, indeed. Good luck, and have fun!

Nice find and very restorable. Glad you could get it running so easy after all the time it sat. Can't wait to see what you do with it. Hope you got a good deal on it.

Awesome find!!!! She sounds great too!!!! I love watching your videos, thank you for sharing and have a great evening!

Wow a gem 💎 Diamond in the rough.❤😊

To paraphrase Dr. Frankenstein, "It LIVES "!Great start to a classic revival. Please go back to the original blue.

It does look better without the moss but you do have a challenge there. But I know you enjoy doing these projects. Happy for you that it started. Now to clean out the gas tank? Etc.? It is a popular car, indeed.❤️👍

I cannot wait to see this completely done!!! Go Alex Go!!! You are AMAZING!!!!

What an awesome deal you got the classic Chevy ,, quite a neat hobby for you to be fixing up ,,I sure hope it will start and run ,,glad you rescued it ,, enjoy

Alex , watching this video was pure joy! What a cool car! 👏👏👏

Maybe you should get it a vanity plate that reads "SQUIRREL" ... 😁

Great find on this 57 and the extra parts help fixing it up. You'll have it on the road soon. / T

My uncle worked at Steakley bros Chevy in Tx from the 50s til late 80s. My cousin had a slew of unbelievable used cars including a 2 dr. 57' just like that one in factory gold w/ gold and brown interior. He had this car in the 70s for a few months. lt had the 6 cyl as well. l drove it w/ less than 20k miles on it and it felt brand new. True garage kept one owner grandma's car. The interior was like new. l cherish the times l got to ride and drive in the 50s and 60s cars when they were low miles like new still in the 70s now when l see these videos. One of the perks of being old. l also live in the house l grew up in and was burying a dead cat recently where my sandbox was in the 60s and found my redline dodge charger hot wheels from then and l thought about curiosity inc.

So glad you saved it !

A '57 Chevy Belair is my dream car. I prefer the trim with the V insert on the rear quarter panel, and a 4-door, since that's more practical for me. So instead of having a real 57 Chevy, I have little replica models displayed on my book shelf. 😊 I was so happy when this baby actually cranked and started. I started clapping with joy! It looks great after the cleanup and pulling out the dents! In 1984 when it was parked, I was still living in Drayton Valley, AB (Nashville TN now), and my mother had a green '55 Chevy which was the daily driver.

Another awesome car saved by you 👍👍👍👍😁

I am a soon to be 59 year old granny and I love visiting with you from South African. Thank you

Where’s the squirrel whisperer when you need her.😂

This is a classic worth restoring!!! Match the original paint?

Really enjoyed this one. Thanks. Loved the Arkansas connection. That's where I am😊

This is a great find. The possibilities are endless to make this a real class ride.

That's a Chevy 6 cylinder for ya! Start right up after sitting for 40 years! Great video. Thanks.

Nice job Alex, love it when a plan comes together !

You make it look so easy. ✨🚗✨

Incredible Alex. Very 😎 Cool.

Oooooohh she purrs like a kitten. Can’t wait to see the restoration of this old girl 😉

You have the magic touch with the automobile. Great to see the love you have for classics.

Whadda cool car! Re the squirrel(s) if you have a vintage boom box (i remember at least one from a precious vid), put that in the trunk with the volume and bass all the way up-no more critters! Lolz 😂

Will it start ? Yes. Fun video. Thanks for taking g us along.

Thank you for filming this. When I met my husband in high school in 1966 this is the car he drove. I miss those days. Thank you again.

What did I tell you about the pool house garage Alex? LOL 🤣 I bet Melissa is thrilled right about now. 🤭 It'll be beautiful once you get it all redone. ❤❤❤❤❤ Another Great Buy. 👍👍 May God Bless you & ALL of your loved ones ALWAYS. ✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️

Great new project car!

WTG!Glad you got it Running!🌴😎♥️♥️♥️Mary in Florida not David B. My I Pad Now! From my older Daughter! 😁😉😎🌴🌴🌴♥️😉

Great to see you rescue an “eyesore” and make it somewhat more attractive again!

How cool, great find. Excited to watch the progress.

How exciting !!! I was just thrilled when you got it running . It sounded great . I am glad your kids are helping you and I hope are picking up your car skills . Great video ❤️

So I grew up in Port Crane, NY. As you were driving away from your house, all the blue spruce trees mixed with the other ones reminded me of our neighborhood. We had the best childhood ever! Thanks for the memories & great video!

I love the original blue color.

"Don't have a pet squirrel" My parents could tell you all about that! 😂

All the best as you work on a classic.

Very pleased to see how interesting your Chevrolet appears after some effort.Hope you'll make a real beauty out of it.Keep well.Thomas from France.

great job....love me a 57.....yes nice to heare something run after those setting years 👋

This is my all time favorite make and model car. I’m not sure what I like more: the house revamping or the car revamping. You are genius, Alex!

I love these videos !!! So satisfying to see this classic Chevy restored! 🤜🤛
