Beautiful build!!!

I always like this car, but never saw one in black going up as a kid. So I desided to make my own. The model is an AMT 70 Impala, painted Testors Black Lacquer with Wet Look clear as a top coat and polished out with Macguires #5 new car glaze. Also has matching interior and Tamiya's clear blue for the glass. I used a fine white paint pen for the raised white letters on the tires. Let me know what you think. Al

Ya I know. Ours had a 318 w/auto trans and a console and floor shifter. A very pretty car, just not what I was dreaming of.

Very nice nice, love the color!!!

Incredible builds!!!

Thank you once again everyone. It's not often that you get to build a model of one of your 1 to 1 cars, even if I didn't get to drive it. LOL

My fingers are crossed. Good luck tomorrow.

Love the colors Rich. Nice paint jobs!!!

That's neat!!! Just what Jersey needs, another shopping center. LOL

Nice build!!!

Beautiful build Alan. This was one of my 1st and favorite drag kits I bought back in the 60's

Nice build, Excellent Detail!!!

My wife didn't say anything but, nice. She says cars are to get from point A to point B and nothing else. If this were true, then why is she driving a new Lincoln MKZ???Thanks again for the commits on the paint. I love Tamiya's non-metalic paint, it always comes out great. Al

Excellent convertion!!!

Harry I polished it out with The Treatment model wax. Thank you everyone the nice comments on my wifes car.Al

Here's a little story how my 1st new car became my wifes. We were just married and my 63 Olds died, so I needed a car. I saved money over the years for a GTX and it was time to buy. I decided to take my new bride car shopping with me, big mistake!!! We got to the dealer and told the salesman I wanted a red GTX with all the goodies. Well the wife took over and before I knew what hit me, I was leaving with a chick car. Long story short, I did get a Plymouth but not a GTX and the new car wasn't even mine. What I got was a hood, sport steering wheel, mag wheels and the color. I also got stuck driving a 70 Datsun painted Earl Scheib yellow to boot. My wife and I don't go car shopping since that day and I drive a Mazspeed 3 now. The model is an old MPC 74 GTX converted into a Satellite, painted Tamiya Italian Red and no clear coat, Tamiya clear blue tinted windows. The split vinyl roof made from 3M masking tape and painted Tamiya's primer white with matching interior and red carpeting. Just like the car I didn't want. Hope you enjoyed my sad story and the pictures of my model. Al

Very nice!!! Thanks for telling us your pictures were blurred, I thought I had another stroke.

Beautiful Jag!!! Love the wheels.

Excellent build!!!
