    The '59 was one of Chevy's coolest years. Yours carries on the coolness.

    I love your car, and I know you put in a lot of hours on rolling the front and rear pans but I think it would look better with bumpers. It's just me, please don't take offense.
    I love the post cars more than hardtops, I'd like to have one one day.

    i'm not really sure bout all the mods that were done to the 59.the white stuff really doesn't suit the car or the grill,just my opinion.i owned 59 impala,pretty much left stock and they sure look good

    Not here to kiss ass or anything, but that is hands down one of the most gorgeous cars Ive ever seen. I just got in trouble at work for staring at it for 20 minutes. Damn fine work sir, damn fine.

    seriously? The stock grille stinks! I used a '60 Merc on mine! :D I almost used a '61 like Truckedup, but it was shorter than the '60 and more work than I could handle, but it sure does look good. Really nice.

    my car was pretty rough to begin with. the factory headlight buckets were junk and to find them is hard enough. i bought the grill off of here for 100 bucks. the filler panels were all bad so thats why i decieded to go with no bumbers. thanks for the good complements so far.....jones

    That thing is slick!!!!
    It reminds me of the old model kits when they had the rolled pans and stuff you could use to customize the car......
    'Cept this one's real!
    Nicely done!

    Sweet ass ride! 59's are one of my favorite years. I never understood why more of them werent floating around though. Minus car shows...I've prolly seen maybe two or three of them my whole life....

    Things happen for a reason!! The grille and front and rear roll pans look tough as hell. You got my vote, your car looks kick ass!!!!

    WOW, that turned out really NICE!!! To say it was rough when you started is an understatement. Wasn't the entire floor cut out when you bought it???? Hmmmm.....seems like my 59 is lookin kinda rough now. :eek::eek::eek:

    No front floor, trunck was bad, no interior, windows were bad. The car was next to a house that cought fire so the passanger had got a lil hot. Didn't hurt the metal ust the windows and what ever paint was left on that side. Thanks to torkwrench for helping me out with some well needed parts......Jones
