Great looking recreation of the movie car.

Great looking Impala.

This is a super fine machine. This might even be better than Darryl Starbird's Superfleck Moon... It is! It's better than Darryl Starbird's Superfleck Moonbird.?

That came out really nice.  Just like I remember seeing it in the movie.  I've never built a 58.  Great job.

Great job, how did you end up doing the tuck & roll?

[ChrisR]

Looks great!

[bluestringer]

Beautiful build. Nice work. Did those wheels come in that kit? I'm looking for a set.

Thank you guys,

Spencer1984, the tuck & roll was made from resin in a silicone mold of an old printer flat cable.  I will take pictures later.  

 

bluestringer, the wheels are from the Amt Ford 35.

[Classicgas]

Well done.

[Sledsel]
