Impressive 61 Impala ressurection!
 

Don't know if any of you guys have seen this (Verne probably has! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif) but its cool as hell...Currently 15 pages long, so you'll need to have some time to kill. Be sure to start on page 1 and sift through all of it... amazing work this guy is doing to bring a 61 ragtop Impala back to life, and great pics and commentary to go along with it.

I only got to page two and I was tired just thinking about all the work! This guy is redefining the term 'labor of love' https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/shocked.gif If he were to charge himself $10/hr for his time, he'll have a quarter million in this car when its done. And from what I can tell (I didn't go to the end yet) it's gonna be a lowrider when its all done https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

Re: Impressive 61 Impala ressurection!
 

Wow!!!!! Now THERE is a man dedicated to his love of the automobile!!!!! It takes someone special to undertake such a project and stay dedicated to it. Kudos to skim!

I was wondering what Joe was doing there as well. Closet Impala lover..................? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

I stumbled across the link to that thread while surfing the Jalopy Journal/HAMB board...I actually AM a closet hotrodder. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif That dude has some skills eh? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Personally, if I WAS a closet Impala lover I'd be fixing up that red 61 bubbletop he bought and re-sold to finance the ragtop project.

Re: Impressive 61 Impala ressurection!
 

Lowrider or not, that will be an amazing car when finished. Hats off to the owner!

Re: Impressive 61 Impala ressurection!
 

I did see it Joe. It truly is a labor of love. Much more work than 99% of the people in the hobby would be willing to put into a car. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
