Very tasteful color combination on the interior! Just a heads-up on your next build - the cooling fan should not sit so far into the shroud; about half the fan blade should be visible as seen from above. looks like the fan spacer is too tall, and maybe unnecessary in this case!

Very nice weathering, but a detail catches my eye and bugs me. You have the rear windshield glass removed, but the chrome in place; it would have been removed to allow removal of the glass, and not likely snapped back into place!

Beautiful color, very unexpected on a Ferrari! Good work!

Absolutely stunning handling of the foil work; BRAVO! Cool color choice.

Go, man, GO!

Interior is outstanding! Is that regular flocking for the carpet? It looks more realistic here for some reason. Care to divulge your secret?

Wow. Color choices are SO much a reflection of personal tastes. Most any color can look good to someone! What do YOU like? This car is all YOU! Don't be afraid of color, go with your gut and don't worry what others choose. That being said, these boxier body styles do two-tone nicely...

Have you considered flipping one of those tonneau covers around, modified as needed, to create a dash that would mirror the back view, thus creating a wraparound/ cockpit environment. I'd also put a generous radius on the doors' lower corners - lots of swoopy lines here now! Just spitballin' here; thinking out loud with a keyboard! This is looking so cool so far.

Have to agree with all the others on this color choice; VERY nice!

Oh, more on topic, about any of the cars from "Bewitched" over its run could be cool.I know Darren drove a convertible, either Camaro or Chevelle, and I believe Larry Tate drove an Impala convertible.

"My sister and I get each other prank presents. One year she gave me a pair of Barbie size man dolls that she got at the Dollar Store. One was white, the other black... but they had faces like mean felons. Little kids would be afraid of these dolls. We couldn't stop laughing. Figure that this was some Chinese designer's idea of what Americans looked like." Sounds hilarious - my friends and I enjoy browsing places like that for the misfit toys! C'mon - pictures, man!!

Nice score! You're gonna like 'em!

For me, the Lindberg 48 Lincoln gave me the biggest attack of WTF-itis. I picked one up at my LHS based on the photo of the actual car on the box, and the fact that Lindberg had been cranking out some nice kits at this time ( mid-late 90s; think 61 Impala,53 Ford, 67 442 Olds, etc) I had no idea this wasn't a newly tooled kit! Turns out it was an old Pyro or some such; just awful and such a let-down. I still have it in my collection (unbuilt), and every now and then I take it out to look it over, thinking "maybe I was too hard on it, and should give it another careful, more objective analysis, then maybe" ...NOPE, STILL SUCKS, and back in the box it goes. Dang you Lindberg box and your REAL car photo!!!

Good luck with this! I have a soft spot for Imperials, and am myself a fan of the faux spare tire cover, as it just seems to be a part of the Imperial image. This is YOUR car, so build it your way! I'm currently bogged down in an Imperial project- the Model King release of the '59 that I'm converting to a 4-door hardtop LeBaron. ( In the midst of moving, so it's on hold for now.) I'll be watching your build closely; I gotta get me one of those body-styles, where did you find it?

Love this show, hope to make it this year!

Unsure how to order! What is wisdonm? Was that supposed to be a link?

Very handsome automobile, and a beautiful model!

Love the 63 Impala, and yours is nice! Red is so right on this body. One detail nit to pick that just glares at me: those things on the front fenders are merely chrome decor, not lights. You appear to have them colored yellow to mimic lights. Otherwise, dig it!!!!

It's an odd mix of chassis/interior/body. The body is completely stock and quite nice for the subject; it's the rarely seen hatchback Nova. The chassis is fairly generic, as is the interior tub; what you would find in many of AMT's/ Model King's gasser kits, and I believe you could source a much more realistic chassis from MANY sources, but that's my opinion. This body style has real potential, so I'll be watching to see what you do with it! Good luck!!

I think you're doing a great job of personalizing this body. There's been so many Mercs that have a sameness because builders are afraid to vary from a perceived "formula" for a chopped Merc. This is going to be so cool....

I think the AMT 55 Nomad or 55 sedan have the wheels you need, I'll check my stash later tonight and check back tomorrow.

One of the cleanest interiors EVAAAAH!

Oh yeah, and don't forget the newer tooled 66 Riviera for a SWEET engine, and the older 65 and 69 tools have some nice-for-the-time Buick goodies!

Looking forward to your progress on this cool Buick! If you aren't sold on that chassis, why not substitute an AMT 58 Impala, 62 Impala, or Revell 63-64 chassis. I do believe the Wildcats shared wheelbase/chassis with their full-size Chevy cousins. On another note, I'd kill for a resin copy of your front bumper/grill and back bumper/chrome pieces to cut and paste on a 65 Skylark scratchbuild I'm gathering pieces and references for right now. VERY similar shapes, just a bit wider, but a great starting point. GOOD LUCK!!
