Location: Bethlehem GA		I have a rough 1957 fury that I have to sell to pay some medical bills. I really don't know what its worth or what the best course of action is to get the car to a good home is.
The car is a true Fury with the 404 body tag. The roof has rust through under the trim and the drip rails are detached in rhe rear. The trunk floor is gone and the lower quarters are rusty. The doors have no bottoms and the front clip is rusty in the usual places. The original 318 is gone and there is a locked up 301 in it. The rockers have some holes but can be patched and the interior floor has holes but not to bad. That is the bad.

The good is I have a lot of parts to put it together.
I have all the original sport tone and inserts plus the fury fender spears and 150 speedo. The bumper wings are still with the car as well. I have a correct duel 4 bbl intake. I have a very good 58 belvidere 4 door parts car. The front clip is perfect and it has a perfect 57 valence. The decklid, trunk floor, rockers and quarters are perfect. The only rust in the car is a few tiny holes around where the seat bolts. I also have a rust free top from a Savoy coupe, one good door and the Fury roof trim.

The car is a mess and a major project but it is fixable. I need it gone in a few weeks to a month which is a problem. Any ideas what the car is worth or best to sell complete or part it out and dispose of the remains? I hate to think of the car not getting fixed but others could live on. Best place to list it for sale?

Location: Bethlehem GA		The 4 door was a nice rust free sedan someone cut into an elcamino. The top on it is off a Savoy coupe, as are the doors. there was a time I thought about converting the butchered sedan into a coupe out of a rusty Savoy I had. But I could have bought a good coupe for less than the time it would have taken was worth.

My bills are 4300.00. If I got that I could pay what I needed to. Whether its worth that much or less or even more, I don't know. I don't wan't to cut my throat or price it like its gold either.
