bisc63 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) Off to a nice start! Very attractive color; what's the interior color going to be?Will be watching with interest as I used to own a '66 SS with a 327, 3-speed manual shift on-the-column(!). Mine was black with a white interior. Love these big Chevies! Edited November 9, 2017 by bisc63 ommitted info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58 Impala Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Nice paint, will be watching your build. Love all big Chevys, the 58 Impala is my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1972coronet Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Janne -se on erittäin mukava Impala! Suuri valikoima sen väreille; Minun täytyy saada osa siitä "TS-92" !( I hope that the translation is correct ) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PARTSMARTY Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Amazing color and it's so shiny !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Caballo Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Great color choice, that era of GM cars had bodies that were long and sleek and made excellent palettes for all sorts of colors. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slotto Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Great color. Can't wait to see more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 This is a great kit and I like your color choice. Hopefully the dust in the paint can be sanded out. I bought a new '66 Impala Super Sport with the 396 & 4-speed in Danube Blue with Black interior. Except for the cost of insurance it was a great car. Look forward to your build.

Janne Herajärvi Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 Off to a nice start! Very attractive color; what's the interior color going to be? Interior will be combo of black and leather brown.. Thank you guys for your nice comments.. And here we have little update what kind of wheel and tire combo im going to use.. I did pick some 6 bolt steelies and made chrome lip with molotow chrome pen, then other of that is satin black.. Bolts will be chromed also later.. Then AMT`s nice parts pack redline tires.. Here you go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janne Herajärvi Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 Hi guys... How about another update? Dash is waiting for finishing touches with some decals.. I like it so far.. Front seat in progress.. Engine got some red color.. Chevy engine red by Model Master.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Kudos on the paint color you've chosen for the body. It's going to look spectacular with those wheels and tires. I hope you won't mind a nudge for the sake of accuracy: you'll need to turn those valve covers the other way around so the bolts are 3 up and 4 down. See pic.

bisc63 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Lookin' good! Since we're watching details, Impala should have 5-lug wheels, not 6. Keep on building! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janne Herajärvi Posted November 11, 2017 Author Share Posted November 11, 2017 (edited) Thank you guys... Monty: i can blame Revell about those valve covers, i just followed instructions.. Atleast oil cap is in right place i guess.. I leave it like that since i used super glue.. Rusty: Yes i know it should have 5-lug wheels, but these were only ones i could pick for this build..

In these pics, the paint could ALMOST pass for '66 Chevy Aztec Bronze. Almost. At any rate, looking very, VERY good! Drive on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janne Herajärvi Posted December 3, 2017 Author Share Posted December 3, 2017 Thank you guys.. I have done some progress today also, but nothing to show up.. Ill guess i might get this finished soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Jacobs Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Looks great. The Impala is one of my favorites because I have good memories as a kid of riding in my grandfather's 1963 Impala. What did you use for the chrome trim and how did you get such a straight edge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
