This just in...
One of four in a WCPD lot I got on eBay. Three were in great condition but all were missing the hubcaps and skirts. I found some WCPD hubcaps on eBay but they're not the correct ones (would you have noticed?). A black '64 had terrible rash on the hood that I'm working on repainting.

Found the hubcaps on eBay...
Thanks, Dennis. I have several searches saved on eBay, one of which is for WCPD. Sort the results by lowest price first, and occasionally you'll see various parts. I've also found mirrors, bumpers, etc.

Wheel Covers
I for one noticed the incorrect wheel covers on your 64 SS.
Having owned one back in the day I am partial to the 64 SS. I think the original wheel covers were part of the character of the car.

'ALL' the early Impalas look good in ANY scale. Nice '64s.

Sharp eye, Robert...
I like the original wheel covers too. All of my other WCPDs have the correct ones. I'll keep an eye out on eBay. Nice looking 1:1 by the way.

As do I - the hubcaps they used are from a 61
