Another well done replica. Your show case must be outstanding. You have kindled my interest in brass era machines as well with your builds.

Every one is practice for the next one. If each one is a little better than the last then you can be proud. Keep at it!

Looks good Scott. Hope the wrist is OK.

I have to agree. Not sure anyone could improve the original styling. Not impressed with the electric yellow color and the red calipers showing through the 20's. Just not my style I guess.

What a clean build! Excellent.

Nice. The engine details are outstanding.

Don't think I've ever seen one in silver, looks good!

Welcome back. Nice work, cool subject.

Great job Rich. Nice looking model. Insomnia is good for something, eh?

Wow, that is inspiring! I really enjoy your builds, thanks for sharing.

I would agree, apparently the model companies do not. Is it only us 'old fogeys' interested in the brass era?

Love it, great job on the batwing!

Great paint, nice work.

Great looking models!

Great work! I can't pass up an Impala.

X2. I'm not holding my breath however.

I think Bill has it right, intermediate body (light weight) together with large c.i. motor. I remember the term first coming about to describe the GTO and expanding when competing companies came out with their versions (GM A-bodies, Ford Fairlanes and Torinos, Roadrunners, AMC Hornets, etc.). I've also heard Duesenbergs mentioned, as well as the '50 Olds and some '30s Lincolns. All depends on your point of view I guess.

Since lately I've done mostly factory stock builds I try to vary them staying within believable palettes. Other than NASCARs which are all over. I would do more in black but it's really hard to pull off a nice paint job in black. I will say that black is the color I use the most however, for interiors and undercarriages.

Great build, classy ride!

You're an artist working with styrene Harry. The WIP was very informative. Outstanding replicas.

I used to have a half dozen going at once and never got anything finished, now I've pared it down to 3 at any one time. I try to keep them in different stages so while paint or glue is drying on one I can do something else on another. It doesn't always work out that way but it seems to be working for me.

Very nice! My grandfather drove one of these, green & white. Thanks for the memory

Wow. That is some incredible work, you should be proud.

Great paint and great story. Nice work!

Looks good! How was this kit to build? I've got one in the stash but haven't really looked it over too much.
