No idea what's being said but I'm thinking they've decided this oval ragtop is a bit too far gone:

They stated that this is a quite rare '57 oval bug.
It's a standard model with cable brakes and without chrome trim but with that ragtop as an extra.
This seems to be a quite uncommon and rare option. They assumed about 10 cars may have been built.
The extra charge for the ragtop option was almost the same as for a fully equipped export model with hydraulic brakes.
