Can you imagine driving this in 1957? This thing screams cool to me and it 310 hp, 4 barrel Carter, rumbling dual exhaust.

I really like this one. Did a little reading, I guess that it wasn't legal in all 50 states to have 4 headlights, so they put the large front turn signals in there instead! Also, front grill made by basically stacking two heavy bumpers, like the style!
 
I would have to disagree with the title....

imagine driving a 57 Nash or Eldorado Brougham into a state that still had the 57 quad headlamp ban...I see a state trooper pulling you out of the pack and telling you you have to turn around and go back home....I cant find the states though. Some states said the 60 Ford was too wide for a car too! And that bumper(s)...imagine the steps involved to press that out! Oh, my 57 Ford looks like it was designed for quads from the start (ala 58) but they stuck a single right in the middle! Now that looked terrible in my opinion. remove the ring and 2 could fit under the eyebrow.
