I don't know if it will end up that way yet. I don't think there was one made 1:1 and just want to see what you all think if it's cool to fit this board or not.
I will most likely make it the convertible impala instead of convertible el camino....but just curious.

I've actually been planning to do the same thing to a 59, using the spare windshield frame from the Revell '59 Hardtop kits.

Go for it, i love roadster utes and it will be interesting to see how you build it.

Well one was never available factory stock, even in Australia where they did some weird (read very cool) ute roadster versions of cars we love. But when the hell did anyone round here worry about factory stock?

Brave to hack up an original when there's a decent resin version available... you knew there was a resin, right?

RodBurNeR: Torino would be interesting, I am going to a swapmeet tomorrow, gonna see what I can find Jan 19, 2024 22:51:31 GMT -5

rickcaps55: Thanks Ed i have had this one for a long time got it as a kit that was stared but never got to it i have to say it was on the shelf for the last 15 years i guess it's time to get it going.!!! Jan 22, 2024 14:53:00 GMT -5

41chevy: Yeah I'm leaning towards the Torino as a Winfield /Starbird style idea car like the Ford Custom Caravan would have commissioned. Jan 23, 2024 13:53:42 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: fyi I did Pay for ad free here, I might have to renew that Jan 23, 2024 23:51:04 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: been really busy, work, parenting, skateboarding and trying to find a house to rent by august ! can't wait! Mar 26, 2024 17:07:25 GMT -5

41chevy: One weekend of flooding, next weekend of ice and 9 days of no power and this past weekend 18 inches of snow and two days of now power. Sticks!! Apr 6, 2024 12:33:53 GMT -5

Mr. Metallic: Poll for MoM is back open to try to break the tie. May 2, 2024 12:59:37 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: I hope you are all having a nice Memorial Day weekend! May 26, 2024 8:26:51 GMT -5

Mr. Metallic: Sorry to let everyone down but I'm going to have to give up my responsibility running MoM. Anyone willing to take it over please reach out to Bob and I. Jun 4, 2024 16:32:47 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: Craig it's all good, yes please let me know if anyone is interested. I will be a lot more involved after August! Jul 13, 2024 22:57:15 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: have a good weekend everyone! Oct 25, 2024 17:25:38 GMT -5

krassandbernie: I've posted some really cool stuff here on this board recently with little response......this place is on life support! Nov 4, 2024 20:17:16 GMT -5

Mr409: Posting has been a bit slow here lately. It's a shame, in my opinion this is the best modeling site around. I, myself, have one barely un-TRaKable project going on at the moment, once that's done I'll get back to work on some of my TRaKable projects... Nov 6, 2024 12:54:58 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: it has been a bit slow, but i come everyday. i am so close to being able to build and hope that things pick up again i miss this place! Nov 9, 2024 22:04:22 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: I paid up three more years on fotki, it's been 20yrs already! Nov 11, 2024 23:16:53 GMT -5

Mr. Metallic: it's been about that long for me too Bob Nov 15, 2024 7:55:05 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: with facebook and instagram, it amazed me how many people stopped paying for storage and so many great memories are lost. i will not do that. Nov 17, 2024 13:31:07 GMT -5

Mr409: My Fotki is since 14 years. It indeed is a bummer how many pics are gone from old threads. I will also try to keep mine up there, but I also don't have any desire to go to FB or Instagram either.

RodBurNeR: facebook has it's ups, but i really like to share here when i am building. it matters to me what is said here more than anywhere else. Nov 17, 2024 22:07:19 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: just want to wish everyone a happy safe holiday season! it's among us Nov 22, 2024 22:57:44 GMT -5
