1957 Plymouth Belvedere 4dr sedan
This car is equipped with a Poly 301 V8 2bbl and a pushbutton Powerflite. 2 speed automatic transmission. Car has dual exhaust. The intake manifold and carburetor appears to be a 1966 dated manifold. The accelerator linkage was modified to work with the newer style throttle control. Could be easily returned to factory specs by adding a pre '61 2bbl carb. The car starts and runs and I have driven around the yard. Currently I am running the car by hotwire as the ignition switch is missing. The fuel pump operates fine but I have not tried pumping gas through the gas tank. I've been running the car off an auxiliary tank under the hood. The engine doesn't make any noises or smoke and seems to run very well.
The brakes work and stop the car reasonably well. The transmission feels strong and It does shift into second gear. I have not driven the car on the highway. Of course one should inspect the brakes and go through the drivetrain prior to driving on the road just for safety.  
The body is solid and the floors are near perfect. There appears to be some filler on the drivers front fender top and the passenger rocker. Other than that it appears to be pretty straight. The paint looks pretty decent but it is an amateur paint job. The interior needs some work. The seats need recovering and the headliner and sunvisors need replacing. The carpet could stand to be replaced as it looks like outdoor house type carpet. Driver's door glass has a crack but its flat glass and can easily be replaced by having a new one cut at a glass shop. Door panels are useable.  
The previous owner installed aftermarket gauges and it appears that the amp gauge may have shorted. The wiring may have been affected.  
The tires are okay. and hold air. Still have plenty of tread but are probably several years old.
The missing trim on the back glass is inside the car. There are some gaps in the rear glass gasket that need to be sealed.
The car does not have any power options. She is a manual brake and manual steering car. And the Air Conditioning works by rolling down the windows! The car is equipped with a factory AM radio. The antenna is missing however. The car also has a day/night rear view mirror. Also someone added a rearview mirror to the roof. Double mirrors for double safety? The factory mirror is still on the dash.
With a little work this car could be back on the road in no time. She's a very good looking car. The yellow and white two tone paint really has that 1950s look. And whats better than fins reaching to the sky? You definitely don't see the Plymouths very often. And yes this car is similar to the Christine car from the movie. The new owner may wish to go that route but its up to them!
