Horrorshow Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 AMT 1958 Impala kit. 100% box build. Wanted a bright orange paint but this rookie used grey primer. I had some trouble with the opening doors and spent a lot of time on the bare metal foil. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I like it, lots of chrome on those 58's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Looks great. In your pictures the red looks a lot like the shade Chevrolet was using at the time that was sort of an Orange/Red anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarheelRick Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 That is one fine looking 58 Gasser. Many people overlook these full-size cars, but they are used quite often. This '61 was at the Southeast Gassers show last year. There was a '58 there this year (didn't take my camera) but he won the B/Gas class.

Dutzie Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Great job. There is a ton of trim to foil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooOld Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 It may not be the bright orange you wanted but it still looks great ! I've built a couple of these kits but don't think I've ever seen one built using all the drag parts , it's really cool looking ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
