    Tom Davison posted this kool pic and background info.. "Tom got this’59 Impala, my dream car, in the fall of ’63. I first painted it in a candy gold, orange, red and black Cushenbery style fade, but had a fender bender before I had a chance to buff it out. This shows the Candy red over pink pearl that Ray Farhner sprayed for me (I was afraid of spraying candy). The whitewalls are General Royal 90 triple 3/8” whites with the inner two stripes painted black. Black pleats by Bob Sipes."

    May 1956 Car Craft cover car. Built by Gaylords and possibly the owner. (Article isn't clear on who did the "additional torch work").

    I hadn't seen this new style of paint job in person. Looks too much like a Kool Christmas bulb. The Chop on the Buick is too Kool!
