Space Cowboy Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 (edited) I am taking 2 Impalas and making a long limo and i mean long. More coming soon. Edited April 28, 2010 by Space Cowboy
RodneyBad Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 Not something you'd see as a limo. But it looks to be a cool Project. Can't wait to see it done.
Tumbler75 Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 Interesting Project! I'm watchin' that's for sure. Give those Lincolns and Caddys a run for their money! LoL
Jon Cole Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 It appears that the side window sills don't line up... I would think they should line up. Perhaps fill in the entire mid section? What color are you going to paint it? It would look good in "Limo" black with dark tint glass, via Tamiya window tint. Keep going with this!
High octane Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 Space Cowboy, Your limo project looks good and I'll be watching for the outcome.
Space Cowboy Posted April 24, 2010 Author Posted April 24, 2010 Got a lot more done. Hope to have some interior work done soon.
RodneyBad Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 That is coming along Great. I like how you redid the rear window. As Always, Superb work.
Tumbler75 Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 That's a MAJOR transformation and I have to say I really like it! Great job especially on the roof extension in the rear!!! I see you used a couple more Imp's to get things in line. Excellent execution! Keep it up 'cause I can't wait to see more!
Agent G Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Looking good Bruce! Remember the only door on the driver's side would be the driver's due to structural considerations. Full frame autos are limited by regs. There will be up to three doors on the passenger side but two is the norm. One for the front seat passenger, and one in back for the remainder of the "guests". Usually a bar or some type of entertainment center will be on the left side of the interior. As for the rest? Go crazy man, go crazy! G
Jordan White Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Remember the only door on the driver's side would be the driver's due to structural considerations. Full frame autos are limited by regs. Then how come all the Lincoln Town Car limos I see have doors on both sides?
Tumbler75 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I've seen "Limos" with as many as 8 doors (4 per side) but the norm being 4 (2 per side) UNLESS it's a Late Airport Limo, which is commonly known as the "Mourning Funeral Limo" by today's standards, which the number of doors could be endless even if it was straining on the frame. I think a li'l History Lesson of the Limo is in order shall we? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limousine Space Cowboy, Go Man Go! I can't wait to see whatcha do with this wonderful ideas! I'm waiting patiently to see more. * TWO THUMBS UP!!"
Jon Cole Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 (edited) "Remember the only door on the driver's side would be the driver's due to structural considerations. Full frame autos are limited by regs." G Every limousine I have ever seen has at least two functional doors on the driver's side, one for the driver, the second door out back for the guests. BTW, this looks like a great build! You solved that alignment issue... keep going! BTW #2... nice job incorporating a formal roof line out back! Edited April 25, 2010 by Spyder
Wayne Buck Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 This is a cool project! Never saw an Impala limo before. That is a BIG transformation and you are doing an awesome job on it! Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see it finished! Hey, you should build this one next!
jedimastergary Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 This is going to be one cool Limo when it is done I have never seen a Impala Limo see lots of Hummer and even a escalade Limo around town
Space Cowboy Posted April 26, 2010 Author Posted April 26, 2010 Got some more done so have a look. Hope to have some primer on soon..
Space Cowboy Posted April 28, 2010 Author Posted April 28, 2010 Well got it primered & painted the color is White. More coming soon.
Tumbler75 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Still lookin' really awesome man! I love how you are workin' this one out without any major hiccups (so far) I can't wait to see what all you do to it. Keep us posted, I'm watchin' for sure!!
Space Cowboy Posted April 30, 2010 Author Posted April 30, 2010 Got the Limo done and moved it to Underglass Section so have a look and enjoy..
Wayne Buck Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 (edited) That is looking GREAT!! Keep up the good work! She's gettin there! edit: Just checked it out in under glass. (guess I shoulda read your post here first before posting..hehe) AWESOME job!!!! That is a really cool limo! Might need to borrow that when my fiance and I decide to get married! Now where did I put that shrink ray.... Edited April 30, 2010 by NJ-Wayne
