speedy5963 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Good morning all, here is 59 Impala built by my pops about 15 years ago, some fitting issues but overall came out really nice. GM Red and white top, Sikkens paint and clear, lowered with chrome reverse wheels, otherwise mostly built from the kit itself 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Beautiful looking Impala. Great looking paint and clean chrome details. The chrome rims give it a nice period look. Funny thing, when I built this kit a few years ago I did it just like this even to the color. I did put the white paint on the top of the fins as well. This is how I remember them as well.

TooOld Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Beautiful Impala , your Dad does excellent work ! A small tip on photographing your models . . . hold the camera a little farther away and you won't have the blurry areas . All of the details will look better too .
