bbowser Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Awesome job on the interior, although the belts look a little too wide for 1966? I love the color. Impala's rule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbo Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Very nice, where did you get the wheels from are they in the kits or taken from another kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Great job with it so far. Can't wait to see more. That color is great, and wheels look good too. I'm building AMT's '67 Impala and I'll use Rallye Wheels to it. Interior looks really nice, keep it coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCostello Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 This looks great.I've been trying to come up with the right color to paint my 66,and I think I've found it. What paint did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie8575 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 You don't see too many full-size Chevys from the mid-60s in gold, which is too bad, because it looks nice on them. Coming along nicely so far. If i may suggest- liven up under the hood a little. There are some details there that look like they need to be painted. You should also consider hitting that flat black with a coat of semi-gloss clear, as that will be closer to correct. it would also be wise to do that to the seats, as vinyl isn't dead-flat.

gray07 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Great build, i will be watching this build, i sold my 1.1 66 impala 2 years ago, loved that car, white with blue interier. cant wait to see this done, beautiful car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Tyrone, I like where this is going! Couple questions: 1) What silver(s) did you use on the part of the dash surrounding the speedometer? (Testors enamel? ModelMaster Metalizers?) Looks like you nailed the look. 2) Did you do anything to enhance the door lines? (Rescribe? Darker primer?) They look very realistic. I look forward to seeing your next update.

Modellpularn Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Looks good! The grille could use some thinned black paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 It's looking good Tyrone! '66 Chevies are my favorite! I used to own a Caprice. The grille on this kit opens up pretty easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Roger I'll have to look into opening up the grille instead of painting it, I used to have a 66 2 door, and my dad used to have a 65 2 door, and I sold mine like an idiot...
