Hi guys well my next build i am planning to do the sox and martin impala (63) my question is which kit would be suited best for this build

The Revell kit would be the best overall kit ! You will have to do some trimming and paring away to get a 409 to fit in the engine bay . Expect to do the same with the rear axle to get the rear slicks up inside the rear quarters .

IThe Revell '63 is based off of a diecast and it shows. To me,the AMT's body looks better proportioned.

Your implication that there is some sort of technological reason that limits a diecast's realism is off base.

Some manufacturer's diecast kits or models may well be "off," but if so, it's because of the manufacturer making mistakes, not the fact that it's a diecast. I own quite a few high-end diecasts that put most plastic models to shame as far as realism and proportion goes. Diecast is just the material, it doesn't dictate how realistic or accurate a model can be.
