Hi All.. Started a new project--the 67 442 Wagon is on hold for a while..This is a 61 Impala, built like the real one I owned many years ago..It is a light tan with matching two tone interior, not the real original color but.close as I can get to something I had back in the 60s.. The original was a 348 cu in - 350 hp - three two barrel - solid lifter cam - 4spd - car. Trying to make as close as possible to what I had back then ...It was a fun car to tool around in back in the day- not a killer race car but fun.... Enclosed are some pic's of it in various stages. I tried BMF but it did not work--don't know why ( maybe old ) so I am carrying on old school and Painting Chrome Trim. Pics are of progress with that paint before I clear it. In pic's it is sanded with 6000 Grit Wet Sandpaper and waiting for clear. Enjoy. Comments Suggestions or just plain Chit Chat are welcomed- and looked forward to. Thanks Tom 60s era
