Another one page Flyer today, but it is a winner with a Chevy that totally rocked for me.  Primarily I think it's because of the stylish roof-line...it gives the car a "Forward Motion" look.  I was disappointed when it was a "one-year only" look for Chevy, but those was the times.  Though normally I'm not a fan of Continental Kits, I've always believed that the '58 Chevy was a car that could wear it nicely.  It's those reversed rear fenders and the iconic three taillights snuggling the Kit that just seem to be a natural.

Excellent choice today. A very beautiful Impala, my favorite of the several I have. Such a perfect color combination.

So Tony, if were to run out and "start all over again", would that be like the words in the Herman's Hermit's song, "Henry the Eighth" where he sings, "Second Verse Same As The First"?  Smile /strong>

On a more serious note, I won't run out for awhile, but there may be an interruption in mail delivery for a few days here and there.  I've been dealing with a health issue for most of this year and in the last month it's been knocking me down somewhat.  The result being I've been a little less on the computer.  So on some days if "I'VE GOT MAIL" is missing, be patient.

I love this color combo on this car too; especially with no connie.

First of all George, I pray that your health problem can be handled  with a positive conclusion. Secondly I agree with your comments regarding the 58 Impala. I restored a 58 Impala hardtop with a continental kit, skirts and dual rear antenna and have always thought it was the best looking of all  Impalas. The hardtop is especially neat because of the  roof line and simulated air vent on the rear edge. My 1/1 was all white with a turquoise/silver and black interior. I have all of the DM 58 Impalas but this one is my favorite.
