Revell 65 Impala Convertible

[RDean58]

So here is one that I started back in 2002. I want to get it finished because I have decided to do the same kit for the 13th Annual 24 hour build. I figured if I'm going to get one done in 24 hours, then I should get this one done first!

Here is where I'm at right now. I did the wheel well trim, seat trim, dash trim, tail light trim, and hood chrome all with a Molotow 2mm chrome pen. I love it!  How did I ever get by without it?  (By using BMF that's how! PIA it is!)

Body is painted with Auto touch up "ultra marine blue with a clear coat (I think) or else I polished it out. It has been too long for me to remember, but I think I just clear coated it.

Ken's fuzzy fur carpet.

I still need to do more on the dash, like instrument decals and some finer painting of the chrome. Door trim is BMF while seat trim is Molotow  pen.

I have a decal for the back as well, I just could not resist doing the pen on it though. Outside of tail light bezels are the pen while the inside is Testors Chrome paint.

Valve covers and intake are from  the AMT 62 BelAir  while the block is from the kit.

 

Thanks for looking!  All comments welcomed.

Looks fantastic! Very nice color combo. It will look great once you finish it.
