AMT 1959 Imperial

[WheelsAreEverything]

Here's a curbside '59 Imperial I finished last year. Custom touches include '57 Chrysler 300 roof and interior, '59 Chrysler New Yorker front bumper, mildly re-done side trim, and '62 Dodge wheel covers over Pegasus wheels and tires. Paint was Tamiya rattle can.

I love that one Mark. 

The modifications are so subtle a person not familiar with those cars would never know the difference.

Sorry I haven't e-mailed you back since last time, BTW. I'm getting kinda forgetful in my old age. 🙄

Congratulations. This is exactly how I would want mine to look if I ever get around to building it. Perfect selection of colours.

Thank you! Yeah that Tamiya pearl light red is always a winner, especially on classics.
