59 Impala

[geetee66]

I confess...I adore 59 Chevy's.

This was an epic BMF job! It's a Revell Lowrider kit. I added some engine details and some additional exterior stuff. I used a PE set from MCG

Here's the interior:

The engine:

I used online source material to get some of the details, as there are very few of these in my country.

There are all sorts of tiny details that only I know about on this model (I bet that rings true, eh guys?)

Here's a shot that shows something that most people don't see:

Thanks for looking

That is some great BMF work . Interior looks killer.

you sure you didn't growup in a GM Chevrolet plant? great work

[Greg Pugh]

Wow!!!!

[Darbo]

Great BMF work on that kit , i reckon you must have used a full sheet to cover that build!

[Skydime]

I missed this one. It's isanely perfect too.

I'm not much into lowriders but WOW! That is a very nice '59!

Did you use bead wire (or other type of wire) for the separation of the tail-light lenses? The chrome on those look fantastic! Much better than BMF!

Thanks, Bill.

I used fuse wire. I don't know if all 59's had lens separators, but the photos I found on Google showed them.

Very clever and realistic! Every '59 Impala I've ever seen had the chrome separators. Not sure about the lesser models but I believe they did as well.

Well Done, 59s are great

[crazyjim]

Oh yeah. SHINY :)

That's called treating each part as a model.

pretty cool chevy.

[Foxer]

I have a '59 still waiting for a BMF finishing. I congratulate you and well done!

[Dr. Cranky]

Another beauty, and that's a wonderful interior.

[Danno]

Extraordinary! Most excellent!

Love the taillights; you're right ~ few model builders have bothered with that little detail. Your treatment is very convincing.

Also, I'm in awe of the BMF work on your interior!! Again, few modelers have tackled all the fine chrome strips and buttons!

Thanks for sharing it with us!
