62 Chevy to restore

[70gmcer]

Gonna try and bring this custom back to an original 50th Gold Anniversary like the hardtop I did. When I got this, it must have been setting in a vacuum cleaner bag. Look at the dust. I was able to take it apart and did the body work on the body & put it in primer.

OOO 70, looks like your off to a great start kidd-o! It's neat when you can bring an OLD kit back. That ones gonna be worth it, I got 2 old 62 AMT annual Impala Hdtps that I was able to restore, They din't come out 1/2 bad. GREAT SAVE!!

I had to cut out the back tail light panel. It was too far gone because of the custom tail lights that had been installed. I used the panel from a newer kit. I painted the body & interior with Dupla-Color #DFSM351 Sunburst Gold. Tomorrow, I'll paint sand on lay down the clear.

Nice job so far. There's nothing better than bringing one back from the dead.
