Oh, I guess using a 57 catalog image isn't going to work in this case.

How about this? Promo for the new 58 Tornado before Christmas 57

And this, but the chain ring, pedals, seat, reflector, grips and stem are not correct.

The 1957 Christmas ad is the same bike you have, your's is missing the correct "S" seat , chain ring , pedals, rear reflector and gooseneck . Everything else is correct , Yes the grips are correct for the Tornado's and the crank may have been changed along with the chain ring

Nice find. What’s your plan with it?

I think I'm going to just clean it up, repack everything, find some tires for it and ride it! I did find a set of truss bars I'm going to add to it.
