    How I Remember these Model Car Kits . I Think They Cost $ 1.29 Or $1.49 Back Then & No Tax . It Sure Brings Back Memories To Me As I Was 11 Years Old In 1959. Thanks For Bring Me Back In Time To The 50,s .

    Get better soon. I love those vintage car sets. They're neat. Have the 62 Impala and the 58 Impala. The build sheet for the 58 is identical to the Ala Impala except the original had an extra scoop for the roof.

    Cool kit and Kustoms! How do you clean up the chrome before you have it re-chromed? Do you dip it something and rub off the rest of the old chrome, do you have to do some light sanding?

    • @LeftCoastModelCarBuilds
      @LeftCoastModelCarBuilds  Před měsícem +1

      Yes brother, on the stuff that had been rechromed, we would de chrome, remove seems and clean it up then have it redone! Looks nice with some Kandy paint work around it!! Normally purple power strips the chrome off then lightly work out the seems 🤙🏼
