lowrider build.....59 impala

well guys I havn't seen very many lowrider builds here in AF so i thought i would bring you guys one of mine. Now I am not a big lowrider builder, but they are nice for a change. Anyway this is the revell 59 impala kit. I'm building it basically box stock with the exception of a "real" metal flake paintjob, and some hoppin hydros rims. The paint turned out really good, it doesn't show in the pics cause i've found it really hard to photograph metal flake. anyway here are some mockup pics for u guys....................*Ryan*
