For an inexpensive model this one is quite nice as is the convertible.

I've always thought the '65 Impala was a great looking design and your pics prove it !

Thanks Galen.

These always get my attention, they always look so good in photos-as do yours Galen. This a great color. Beautiful photos.

I really wish they were more true to 1:24 scale. If I remember correctly-1:26 or smaller. I have two of them, one in light blue & red-I bought them to expand my range of Impala models, but for display they wouldn't work, just too small. 

So for now, they are packed away-when I add more display cases in the next round-I hope to be able to feature them in a separate display set.

It's a downright shame that Welly NEX missed out on a market share due to their being undersized.
