Price is impossible to predict. It depends on the body style and, most importantly, the condition.

The Old Cars Price Guide lists the following as average values for a '57 Super 88 in #4 condition, which means runs and drives but needs complete restoration:

convertible: $15,000
2-door hardtop: $8,000
4-door hardtop: $6,400
2-door sedan: $4,800
4-door sedan: $4,600

How thick a wallet do you have?

Here's one apparently in California. Just call it an "88", though, so it might not be a Super 88. I believe that's $15,000 for the price. Looks mostly done, but he says it needs an interior.

Here's 4-door sedan, also in California. This one actually is a Super 88. Asking $6,950.

Here's one in Arkansas. Again, just says "88." Has no motor or transmission, but otherwise doesn't look too bad. $2,750.

Here's another actual Super 88 in Wisconsin. $6,500.

Here's one in Illinois that might be what you're looking for. Again, just says "88," but it has an engine and looks like a good project for a price, $5000, that's pretty much in line with the price guides. Note also that he's "taking offers" and lists his current high offer of $1500. Offer him 2 G's and go get it!

Kinda a loaded question not knowing what parts you need. Common, what I call hard parts, brakes shoes front end and engine rebuild stuff can be found in Fusicks or USA Parts Supply and sometimes at your local parts house. If you mean body parts 57 is a one year only body style and no one makes sheet metal that I a'm aware of so its a search to find thing like here on CO or on Ebay. Many of us have a parts car that we rob off of what we can't find and sell whats left over so sometimes that is a option.....Tedd
