Well folks... After 3 long years, I'm gonna finally bring this one back to the bench and finish it. I want to thank Dan Popeko (59 impala) for giving me the inspiration to bring it back. Last time I worked on it I got frustrated when the bodywork came apart on the drivers side, so I glued it back together and then put it away. I brought it back out today and have redone the base coat paint and added filler to the body. I'll add pictures later tonight, and then I'll work on it again and try to get it finished. Wish me luck! :lol:

 

Until later, keep watching! :)

Actually, it was kinda interesting to have a snow shower. I had told my neighbors last Sunday that we would have snow by the end of the week... Needless to say, they thought I was a looney toon! :lol:  Friday morning they couldn't stop laughing that it actually happened...

Update...

 

Finally got the bodywork done, and now I've painted it up. I used Testors Candy Apple Red from a can (this stuff you have to soak in hot water to get it to spray smoother) over a silver chrome base coat. I have yet to add a gloss coat to it. I'm finally happy with the way it came out...

I've painted the T-Tops, and hood as well. I'm getting closer to finally being able to call this DONE!!!
