I personally think this car should be treated no different from a '57 that was left sitting in a field. Restore it to it's showroom condition. If not, it's just another rusty old car.

Here's partially why i think that: In 1957, the winner expected they would get pristine 57 Plymouth 50 years later. In reality they won an orange-ish turd that *might* be worth something to a car guy, but not the average Tulsa resident. I think the city should fork up some $$$$ for a full restoration. Take lots of pictures, but make it new again.
