Does anyone know if an AM company makes a drivers compartment for the ZSU 57 2 ?

There is no AM ZSU-57-2 interior I know of. However, it is based on a modified T54 chassis. Any T54 interior should be able to provide a basic driver's area for it.
Some additional info for modifying the driver's area.
The driver's compartment is located on the left hand side of the front of the hull. The driver's seat is moved forward and to the left in comparison with its location in the T-54. The compartment is equipped with a single-piece hatch cover opening to the left and two periscopic vision devices. One of them can be replaced by the TVN-1 infrared vision device which is operated together with the infrared headlamp (active night vision), which is mounted on the right track board. A fire-fighting equipment signal panel and a spare parts case are also located in the driver's compartment.
