My favorite Chevys are from the years 1939 to 1967, with the obvious Tri-Fives and the latter two years of the 1950s being very highly regarded. Into the 60s, each and every year marked a good one to boot. Somehow tho, the ones in the 50s seem to edge out the latter ones in appeal to me.  Maybe it's just nostalgia.

There are those that will probably cite the wheels on this model as being inappropriate, demeaning and disrespectful to the 50s era, and even ugly. Be that as it may, the lines of this 1:24 scale Jada custom 1959 Chevrolet Impala hardtop still ring true to 1950s nostalgia.  Personally, the casting here provides a hearty dose of it.  The metallic white paint job with the continental kit outback screamed to me to photograph it. Certainly not stock, certainly not completely authentic, but certainly 1950s and unique!
 
Thanks for looking...

Definitely, looks good... Every once in a while, Jada puts out something that you just can't pass up..Whether they're oversized or undersized, (they never seem to know what scale they want to do) (as long as it fits in the box) I've found myself buying them... Some of them are REALLY good models...

While not my thing, it IS an attractive vehicle.   Like something you'd see out of Count's Customs, maybe.
