Nice.

[mr moto]

Very fine build of one of my personal favorites. I agree it looks right in red!

[cobraman]

Great save looks good.

Al, very nice job on saving this one. I think the color choice is perfect and the detailing looks great. What are the hubcaps from?  They look close to what came with the kit. 

I built a few of these in years past but don't have them any more. I really need to get one. I like the more uncommon cars.

Very well done ??

Great color choice and finish. Convertibles seem to always look best in red. Great looking body chrome trim.

I like uncommon cars & trucks also, the caps are stock ones from the AMT 41 Plymouth kit, thanks Rich....hope you find more Larks...

Great rebuild Al, here’s my red convertible that was inspired by a real one I saw at Bonneville one year.
