ModelcarJR Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Finished! I added a top radiator hose that wasn't included in the kit. Otherwise it is built box stock. I also added some blackwash to the alternator. The paint is Duplicolor Dark Toreador metallic on the outside and Testors red on the inside. I added some decals from the Revell kit and I know the hood decal should be on the chrome hood edge but it is so thin and irregular that I put it on the hood surface. The IMPALA SS decals didn't fit on the rear sides so I used a chrome pen as best I could. All in all, it turns out to be a fairly representative 1964 Chevy Impala SS. Thanks for looking! 1
carbuilder1950 Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Great day 2 look with after market wheels and tires. Love the color and detail engine work.
Chuckyg1 Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Very nice. I've always liked this kit. The color is perfect. Considering it's an old school kit, the engine compartment came out really well. Any chance of some interior pix? From what I can see, it looks nice as well. You did the kit justice.
Zippi Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Nicely done. I like the 409 in the business end.
RAMBENNA Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 nice, turned out great, look just like mine I painted mine the same color
Bills72sj Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Very nice. A friend of mine in HS had one in bright red with Cragar SS mags.
ModelcarJR Posted September 28, 2021 Author Posted September 28, 2021 Thanks, everyone for the comments! John, you can see the interior pics in the Work In Process section where I posted as I built the kit.
