1970 Chevelle....REDO


Painted Black

Recommended Posts

I built this Chevelle way back in 1996, never did like it so it went back in the box, so now I think I'll try a redo on it. The paint just didn't have any shine, so I'll attempt to fix that, I'm also going to do a different engine with some speed goodies..

Longblock-AMT 67 Chevelle

Muncie 4 speed- 67 Chevelle

Intake- Offy Port-O-Sonic- AMT 57 Chevy SM

Scattershield-Lakewood-parts box.

FST carb- parts box

Vertex mag-scratchbuilt with 10.5mm plug wires

Hooker headers- 67 Chevelle

I don't work real fast, but hope to get it done in a month or so.

You have all the neat engine parts and wheels and tires. Can you color sand the body and then clear it ? 

Thanks, yes that is the plan, I just do not remember what paint I used, so I'm not sure what clear to use..Suggestions?

Got the engine all done up, now I need to work on getting that molded driveshaft cleared out. Thanks for looking.

I use Tamiya TS-13 Clear on every kind of paint and no problems. Tamiya also offers some great polishing paste also.
