RE: 1959 Chevy Impala - Gordon Steadman - 23rd-Apr-19

Are you going to paint the back white or is it going to stay red all over?

Hi Jason,
Thank you for your welcome.
I did put together a Cadillac Eldorado 1959 in optional hardtop version, and like your Impala took up 2 lanes!! It was finally mentioned that it is not fair on the Cortinas and minis racing at the time. It is shod with "Slot-it HRS2 chassis kit".  I do use it as a pace car occasionally to tease the other drivers Bigsmile . It has been a pace car for Nascar racing!!
Currently favourite is GT3 Class with Black Arrow Lamborghini Murcielagos and Ferrari 358 Italia. Only age keeps me behind the faster drivers, youth wins I guess!
Hope to meet up with you someday. I live in Felthorpe, north Norwich.
Tone
