I wish I had gotten the white/red one but I opted for the black/gray.  The paint hasn't held up too well, but it's a good 20 incher.  Here's my two WCPD '61s

Pete, you have two that I don't.  I have the Red, Maroon, Brown, and White hardtops and then the Green and Turquoise convertibles.  They are just great models.  The '61 Chevy was the one lone car in the General Motors brand line-up that I liked for 1961.

They are gorgeous models. The '61 is among my favorite Impalas, but to be honest, I really like the years from 1958-1965 and it's hard to pick a favorite. 

I have the ones shown, and a couple duplicates of the '61 Coronna Cream Convertible.

Here's another convertible not often seen in Shadow Gray

I wasn't aware of this color variation John.  I have the Corona Cream version.

...here's my '61 survivor...

the model had bad paint rash and I didn't want to strip and repaint it, so this was an option.

Great way to save it, and I like it.  Good job!
