Sweet on the outside, and sweeter still uthe hood! hood!

Looks great! It's got a serious Holden Efijy vibe going on.

Super sexy beast photographed to perfection!

Wow Glen, you've been busy! Another beauty - - - especially that tutone paint job

Gorgeous as always Claude. This one looks as good leaving as it does coming!

A ton of beautiful custom work there, and great paint job!

Ken, you are the full package - - - from design to manufacture to assembly, every bit is just spectacular! For the last 8 years, I have been stumbling my way through trying to make a scale version of the Chip Foose Impostor, and you could probably have done the whole thing in a month. I'm soooo jealous

Thank you Carl!

Just a silly build that puts a smile on your face

I like your eagle better!

Awesome build of a great car! I drove my first one in 1973, which looked exactly like this kit except it was a pukey avocado green color from the factory (popular color back then for cars and refrigerators )

Luke, I am SO glad you post on this forum! Your builds are so different and interesting - - - this one being no exception. Thanks again for posting!

Fantastic tribute to an iconic hot rod! I love all the details, especially in the engine compartment. Now all it needs is a scrawny young Mackenzie Phillips in the passenger seat

TJ, I just picked this project up again and have been trying out the paint you suggested. Do you happen to remember what your base coat was on your Impala? You got a nice brownish tinge I'm having trouble replicating.

Actually, your restoration photos were the ones I referenced when building mine. I had especially loved the rhinestones! The re-release is faithful to the original, but for a different looking eagle on the radiator, and there are weird circular overflashes on the back of the eagle, as well as the headlight crests.
