This was a fun build that I did for a friend that has a 1:1 63 Bel Air just like this. The body is from MCW Resins & it's painted in a Honda Tahitian Green. Wheels & tires are from Pegasus. I used the Revell 63 Impala kit for a parts donor. This resin was actually a Biscayne so I had to remove the upper side trim & add the trim pieces around the tail light cove. Hope you enjoy.

Love the craftsmanship, love the color and paint. Not a fan of the giant wheels. Not on this car at least.

Another nice one!!!!

THanks for the comments guys. I thought I'd show you a photo of the real car that I was building the replica of.



I'm not a fan of the big wheels either, but they are exactly what is on the real car.

Other than those wheels (ICK! 20-inchers belong on pre-WW2 cars and big trucks), I really like this one.

Very nice, clean build.  I like it, including the wheels! Like the finish & detail paint as well.

I like it a lot ESPECIALLY the wheels! Lol! That paintjob is awesome!!!

Super clean build, and quite fortunate that Pegasus made the exact wheels for the replica. That about never happens...

Very nice replica.  There were a lot more Belairs and Biscaynes than Impalas on the street  back in the day.
