[John ED Renstrom]

this pictures was sent to me yesterday. no information on it at all. but it would be nice to see it with out the snow cover. I don't recall ever seeing a 57 Chevy high top before.

AM I wrong wheelbase looks stock no stretch ? The rear side door under its snow blanket looks stock so do the 1/4 panels. A wagon with a raised top???

 

[Bill Marcy]

Looks neat! I too, would love to see it without snow.

 

[Kevin M. Lyons Sr.]

wagon with roof racks?

 

[Darren Bedford]

Looks like there was a 57 Chev Wagon sitting in the driveway with about a 10" thick layer of snow on the roof.

A guy with two spot lights, one in each hand, walked up and put them in the snow to take a photo so people would actually think it was a ambulance conversion.

Winter makes everything look like a hightop, even my Volkswagen! Looks like a painter's ladder rack on the roof of the wagon, with a lot of snow. No judgments until spring! :snow2_smi:

to flat to be anything other then a raised roof and look at the distance between the door handles and the top of the glass. the angle makes it hard to judge how long it is. but the ditch lights are a long way over the glass also. wish I had more info on it. I know national made a 58 with a raised roof but I have never seen a 57

 

[Martyn Donaldson]

Ditch lights?? Nah... I'm with Kevin and Steve on this one. Just a 210 wagon with a roof/ladder rack.. Nothing to get excited about. Add that 10" stack of snow from the rear bumper and catwalk/tailfin onto the roof and rack and there's your "high top". No raised roof or glass here, just a lot of snow! Maybe those Northern white-out conditions are clouding your view

You beat me to it. I thought it was a wagon with a roof rack too so I imposed this same pic I found on the internet with the one Ed posted and everything lines up as a wagon. If you look at the pic just posted you can even see the mark in the top above the drivers door where the rack was.

 

[John ED Renstrom]

here I have cropped it up a little. one of the old clamp on roof racks would explain the flat roof and want looks to be lights.

How long before someone complains, by using the "notify moderator" icon and says that the picture doesn't belong in this forum, because it isn't a professional car, but just a station wagon with a roof rack???
