Thanks for sharing.

Nice job, and it is always good to see a wagon built. I find those old Impalas odd, I think they are kind of ugly, but I still find them to be an appealing car. I guess they have a good personality.

Well, I tell this again, but I can't be without posting a comment. That looks awesome, and as a '60 Impala freak, this one looks very very good! That engine detailing looks very good and otherwise that paintjob is awesome, switching the hood to Revell one is good idea, maybe I must try to do that same thing, because this resin body is waiting for a builder. This is just so cool, I think, it's the best one, I have seen on this forum for a while. Very good tips in that WIP and now I must just wait a little and then when I'm better modeler, I start building of mine.

But this is awesome!!! :lol:

Sure is a nice looking car! You did an awesome job on it for sure and the more that I look at it, the more I like it! I am a bit biased here though because I have a real love for '59 Chevrolets in ALL forms and being as how the '60 was a spin off in many ways of the '59, it goes without saying that I really do appreciate them. I just wish that someone would cast a '59 four door wagon.. *sighs* I have looked at the Flintstone '60 Nomad many times on Ebay but have not bought one yet. My main question here is how did you create the interior bucket - especially the back cargo area? By that, I am referring to the floor and side panels and wheel housings in the back behind the seat. Could you please post some detailed phgotos as to the process and parts that you used??? Thanks in advance.

Wow! All I can say is NICE WORK!!!!! It'll be tough toi replicate what you did although I will certainly give it a try. Thank you for the link to your build pictures.. your workmanship is amazing! That little car is definoitely the result of a labour of love - it's really obvious. Thank you again for sharing.
