My older sisters 1967 Chevy impala

[gseeds]

As a means to get over a builders slump, I started building these cars from my past, no pressure, don’t have to be prefect, not for contest , just kick back and build for the sake of building, and having fun , I’ll build a couple more of these cars from my past then I’ll get back to my more serious builds. 
 

lately I’ve been on a trip down memory lane, the past couple of months I’ve build and posted here on the site a couple models of my old cars from the 70’s and another model of a ‘57 Chevy my older brother drove to high school in 1966, I’m in the middle of building old cars from my past , at least the ones I have photos of, next on my list is this 1967 Chevy impala SS that my older sister Margie and her husband Bob bought back in 1968 , the car was a year old when they bought it, I myself was about 8 years old at the time and remember this car fondly, over the years they owned a few pretty cool cars and cooler Choppers , but this car was always my favorite , the paint is 1967 Chevy impala Emerald Turq. Met from Model car world , and the vinyl top is MCW black vinyl paint, and worked very well, the kit is Amt 67 impala, chrome wheels and baby moons are from the parts box , I’ve added a couple pics of the real car, thanks for looking!!

That's a very cool car, and what great old photos! You're lucky to have those. You did a very fine job with that model, you really got it looking spot on! Love that color.

Beautiful looking Impala. The color looks true to the original. Building models of cars and trucks from the past always brings back such great memories.

Nice job Gary

Awesome! Paint looks flawless and the vinyl top paint worked quite well. The '67 and '68 fastback Chevys were such beautiful automobiles.

Another nice replica.  Reminds me that I have a few replica projects of past family cars to do.

[Robberbaron]

Very nice job downgrading this kit to a "regular" Super Sport, including the flat hood.

[Darbo]

Fantastic, love the colour!

Nicely done Chevy there, Gary . . . . I have built several cars from my past memories, and it is always a very satisying process to go through.

Those old family photos are absolutely priceless, and so precious.
