You can get them from these guys.  www.hapinc.com  out of Washington State.  They are prompt, and easy to deal with.  I bought some for my 56 DeSoto last year and I had them in a couple of days when paying by credit card over the phone.

I don't think relined shoes are available for a '57 anymore - does anybody
know.
I was planning on getting the existing shoes relined although that's
expensive and time consuming.
