• Custom '65 Impala update ,, silver guidecoat ,, [PICS]
  • Hands down the best B-Body GM chop I have seen in 1:25 - or 1:1 *NM*
  • I really like that side profile! *NM*
  • Nice body work.... *NM*
  • Love the hood.....hehe *NM*
  • Nice work. LOL A bubble top would go well with that Corvair-ish front end. *NM*
    • True, but then it wouldn't have a chopped top. '-) *NM*
      • I meant like this. You could chop it of course. *NM* *PIC*
  • Very slick. I like the reworked rear fender peaks. *NM*
  • Have you considered removing the vent windows? *NM*
    • I like to keep them when I chop a top just because it's easier to get rid of them. *NM*
      • You've added a terrific sleekness to the body, only to have it interrupted - to my eye - by an old fashioned bow to customer convinience. Just a thought. *NM*
        • As a practical matter: '65 was the first year with curved side glass. Making a new 1:1 window would be a task and then some.
          • Yup! Exhibit A for the defense your honor... *NM* *PIC*
            • How come it went from Silver Arrow to Silver Arrow III ? Was there a Silver Arrow II ? If so, what became of it? Would it have looked like this but in silver??? *PIC*
              • Steve, that’s gorgeous!! *NM*
          • Nothing that a pot of boiling hot water couldn't handle.... *NM*
  • Great custom work you did there. What is the final color going to be? *NM*
    • shades of peach. *NM*
  • Nice! Body mods are so neatly done, with some interesting details to come! *NM*
  • Beautiful work! *NM*
  • All that bodywork paid off, those lines look great! *NM*
