59 Impala

Thanks Tom. If this is ever made again, I would like to get one. I really don't mind if there is a slight difference in some of the parts. Dan

The one I drove was in the mid to late 70's. The one I saw in the link is so small I can't really see what it looks like. The picture won't zoom to see it better.

Thanks Mike for the information. I'll check it out.

Does anyone know if there was a kit made of the 68 Ford f 600 stake bed truck? I drove one back in the 70's and would like to build a replica of it. Thanks in advance. Dan

Yep, that's the quote I remember but couldn't remember it the other day. Thanks for reminding me Jim.

Was the Savana a sub? I saw a Sub in Naha Port and almost got in trouble taking a picture of a guy cleaning the conning tower. I also got to take a tour through the same sub. Of course I had to keep the camera closed at all times going through the sub. Yeah I was told the Army had more ships than the Navy. Go figure. I really don't know if that was true or not.

Thanks Mike. This was my first all Lacquer paint job using fingernail polish. The colors are Caribbean Blue and Mystic Metal. I also used Red Oxide primer underneath the colors. I was very skeptical about using Lacquer paints but went ahead and did it and I'm happy with how this turned out. Dan

Thanks Antonio. I really like using this stuff to repair broken or missing parts. By the way, will you be going to the CARBS show this coming Saturday in Fairborn? I plan to go.

Thanks guys. This was a lot of work to get it done.

This was re-built from one that was in horrible shape. I was given this car to "FIX" it. I wanted to build it stock but, it was in to bad of shape and so I ended up building it as a custom. There are pictures of the re-build in the on the bench section. I hope ya like it. Dan

Nice save Snake. I just love to see glue bombs re-built.

Thanks guys, this was a challenge and I liked what I had to do to "FIX" it as Dave (the guy who gave this to me) said that I had to "FIX" it. He liked how it turned out and said that I just might get another glue bomb to "FIX". I like this type of challenge though. Keeps the 'ol noggin working.

Thanks guys. I have a few more to do, but, all of them are no where near this bad to start with. Dan

Thanks guys. Mark, can you post a picture of the Buick. I'd like to see it. I wanted to rebuild this stock before I saw what condition it was in. It was so bad that I didn't think that it could be done, so, I just used it as a custom. I think it turned out better this way and so did the guy that gave me the car.. Dan
