Definitely a happy moment as I have finished my Revell 1/25 Chevy Impala. This has been a delight to build as the various little things have genuinely turned out just as I had hoped. The color is Mr Color C47 Clear Red over C10 Copper and it really does suit the big Chevy. The wheels are from the Revell '37 Ford Coupe kit matched up with the kit's lowrider suspension option. Emre Arican from here on the forum came through with a few pieces I was missing including most critically the seats! I used a few detail parts including brakes and a pre drilled distributor from Iceman Collections and the air cleaner is from Model Car Garage just to dress up the engine bay a bit.

I didn't follow along on this beautiful build but I can tell by looking at the finished product that I should have. Very well detailed and painted up Justin.

Beautiful looking paint color and finish. The interior and engine look well detailed and like the stance. The '65 and '66 Impalas were great looking cars and several of my friends bought '65's when they came out. I bought a new '66 Impala SS and really enjoyed it.

Just gorgeous Justin! I have to admit I have a soft spot for this car as I had a 65 Impala SS in Tahitian Turquoise years ago, and built a model of it later on myself.

One of my favorite cars of all time. That looks sharp in red and the interior goes well with it. I had around 4 real ones some years back. I have a resin Biscayne body I picked up a while ago, maybe the time is NOW.
