That's right you're building a 53, that decal is for a 56. Sorry. Speedway Decals made that.

Calling this one done. Used hot glue to attach the foliage....Not sure how long it will stay attached, but the paint underneath is toast...
Onward! Thnking of the 67 Impala?

Two door...AMT kit. Impala SS. I am not really a Ford or Chevy guy, but Chevy killed it with the mid-50s and the 67s. I think a "dream" car would be a 69 Chevelle SS .... But alas, it will likely morph into a Yugo.

Both are excellent kits.
