Hahaha! It very well could! Na, here in the states we've got a lot of folks who love to lower their cars almost until they touch the ground. Our Hispanic community, especially, is enamored with restoring classic cars and then doing this sort of thing. It tends to be akin to the folks who extravently paint their cars with bright paint, put some subwoofers in the trunk, and dip every imaginable part in chrome. There are dozens of "Lowrider" magazines that feature these cars and almost all of them have bikini clad women on the cars. I'd post a reference picture but I'd fear a ban on my account!

Bit of useless knowledge here about the 58 Impala...
In 58 GM only made two models convertible.. the Impala and the Vette.
My father had the Impala and sold it in 65 for a Pontiac Grand Prix.
The best part of the car is the rear... those three tail lites are nice.. -
My first Car (note the "C"), second hand, 2 door, white hardtop. Loved it, thanks for the post.

The golden age for Chevy. . . .THe Bel Air / Impala from 56 to 66. Those were Bitchin' Rides!!! My fave was the 64

Tons of great high poly models. Mine was found in the "cars" section. Only problem is that it can be tricky to find a particular model you're looking for. If you're just wanting to browse models though you can stumble on some great stuff.

FYI, I updated some images. They're back on the front page.

Nice renders. For me, the second one is the money shot.
...But why is only the right light working? -
Jerks that sold me the left 2 headlights must have accidently dipped the bulbs in chrome. Thank goodness for test renders

I owned one of these babies in 1969, same color. Seems to me $5.00 would buy all the beer, gas, and smokes (I smoked then) you needed for the weekend. In 58 it was even better, although airfare hasn't really gone up.
Really fantastic work
