2nd Time Around 1961 Impala

Still nice.

 

well finally got around to finish lowering the rear end of the car today. Also finally got a set of little caps to run for a bit, still have the crossbar caps in a box ready for a later date.

 

I like the small caps too....

 

I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I always preferred the thin trim of the Belair vs the wide of the Impala for some reason. Both beautiful no doubt!

 

I dont think you are, I like the bel air trim as well on the side. I just like all the extra stuff that the Impala got, the interiors, and the extra tail light. But any trim level 61 bubble top looks great.

 

Killer looking bel air

 

Thanks! And I think your Impala is one of the nicest I’ve seen. Perfect stance.

 

Finally got the car dialed in enough to start taking it to some local shows. Still fixing a few things and working some bugs out.

 

Still wrapping up a few things to get ready for Goodguys in a couple weeks, got the rear end rebuilt, tore the aftermarket radio in the glovebox out. Sold a spare engine we had sitting to now start the process of getting the 409 rebuilt to stick in it.

 

I am putting you in for the "KOOLEST GRANDPA" award!!
