You can try Classic : http://www.classicent.com/

I don't think I've ever seen the 57 wagon in person, but that back end sure seems like a waste of interior space by placing the tailgate so far forward. I guess you can use it as a park bench when you go the the park or beach. LOL

These are not as complete as the ones from Classic Industries. But if you only need the front part of the floor they work fine. I used one on my 54 Conestoga Wagon which should be the same floor as your 57. You would need to contact the seller about international orders.

Actually, it's tacked onto the previous year's rear. There's actually not a lot of difference, body-wise, from '54 to '58 in the two-door wagons. Not being very fond of the idea, I have to agree it's a bit of a waste. All said and done though, the design looks a lot better in person than in a picture. Wasn't '57 the first year for the four-door wagons?

SI still has some of the rear floor pans in stock.

Our 57 Packard wagon has the same space by the tailgate. It really is like an added feature. Great for sitting on whilst enjoying car shows or cruises. Also serves as a handy shelf while sitting behind the car in lawn chairs. Put your drinks there and enjoy a sandwich or two.
And as stated it does look more appealing in person than in photographs.

If you can get them from SI, I would. I installed some from Classic and they were not a perfect fit for my 63 Lark front floors.
