2007 will mark the 50th Anniversarry of the '57 Chevy - and boy did GM ever drop the ball by not resurrecting this one! 
You think people want Camaro's? They do, but they'll line up 50-deep for a revamped '57.
I had one similar to this:
except mine was yellow with a white top.
Bring back the '57 GM!!!

I actually considered, pretty seriously, waiting for an '07 model to hit the lot before I bought an HHR, just so I could celebrate owning a '57 and an '07...but the availability of what I wanted-especially at the 0% got the better of me, but an '06 is really 50 yrs if you count, and miss a few fingers..well kinda...maybe not...who cares I've got a couple of killer cars and I'm happy to have 'em.

What about El Camino?
The SSR is kinda the same thing, but I think it is more of a retro 50's pick up.
My father owned about a 1971 El and as a kid I loved to go anywhere with him as long as we took it. We could just go down the street I didnt care
