I have been searching for this model at the retail level for a month now with no luck :( :confused:

I have found the other three models in the "Imapla Parade" series, but not this one.

Is this a limited edition model??

I havent seen any Impala parade in any retail stores yet . I got mine from hobby vendors at swap meets or here on the board .. The black conv was the 1st one I found .... Its almost the same as the black 59 conv in the Coke series .....

There's an OLD who is also an HT member who has all four IP Chevy's on his site.

I found the whole series at Target about 3 weeks ago. The only one I didn't pick up was the '58 hardtop.

I've seen the Impalas at several KayBee's. They are priced at $3.99 each, even though the latest Street Freaks at KB are $2.50 each.

I've seen a ton of that series around here - doesn't seem to be moving. I'm not a big '50's car guy, so I haven't picked them up. I'll keep an eye out for one if you want me to pick it up for you.

I've only seen the blue 69 Impala at Target. Haven't seen any others at retail.

They're out there. Must be just bad luck. Or maybe that 59 has all been WL's!!!!

I saw the same thing at a WM and Target; no '59. It may be 'cause that is part of a C.A.R.S assortment? There were '60s Sizzle and '69 Muscle cars there too, but not all of them.

I got one from MLC's and boy is it purty. :)

Thanks for the offer, but I am going to search for this model a bit longer. I might need to order it through an OLD.

I have to agree, the Black Conv. is the only one I can't find as well.

I've failed to find this one. Its the Hemi Sweet Challenger of Impala Parade, so far. ='(
