While I do like mostly Mopars and Fords, some Chevys appeal to me.  Certain Impalas, Chevelles, Corvettes, and a Nova or two.

I've always liked the Impalas from the early '60s from when I was a little boy.

Thank you everyone!  The plug wires is such an easy thing to do and most of my builds usually have them.  The vanity plates is another easy thing I do and most of my builds have them, too.  It also identifies a build as mine when it's completed.  It's the last thing to go on.

Very nice! Glad to see soomeone else adding plug wires. Seems most dont, and I think a simple addition, easy to do, makes a model come alive.

Aahhh, yeah, that's a sweet build! I like the stance, I grew up when everyone seemed to do that a lot, but I see it only rarely now. Vanity plate is a nice touch.

This is my '62 Impala 409 painted with Dupli-Color Light Blue Metallic.  I raised the rear suspension, added aluminium tubing exhaust tips, wired the engine, blued the exhaust headers, and added a tach on the steering column.
