Drago Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Hi guys... Does anyone can tell me if the "oficial ride" of the surfers girls on the Blue Crush Movie is a '61 Impala four door or a '61 Biscayne four dour? Is there another maker besides ModelCarWorld thats offer a '61 Impala/Biscayne 4door? Thanks fellas!

MrObsessive Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 That's definitely an Impala. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartster Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Modelhaus & Resin Realm both offer 4-door Impala kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jairus Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Dang, I started one of those couple years ago using a Lindberg kit with the roof line from an AMT Buick. Got all the doors scribed in even sourced up another set of door handles and the correct 327 engine. Checked my files and guess I didn't take any pictures... Will be interested to see your take on it Alex, cause this is (another)one I really want to finish. P.S. I swiped the pics to start my file, thanks.

Jairus Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Maybe I will... if you scratch build your own 4-door Impala. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruleworld Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 drago, need to know what car is in a movie, first stop should be http://www.imcdb.org/ as many movies and cars listed there. and here it is http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_69210-Chevrolet-Impala-1961.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Anderson Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 The side trim should also be an indicator that the movie car is an Impala--Biscuits had no side chrome trim whatsoever. Art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Thank You Art. THAT was the biggest give away. there were THREE lights per side on Impala's, biskits only had two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Odyssey Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Thank You Art. THAT was the biggest give away. there were THREE lights per side on Impala's, biskits only had two. That cracks me up everytime I see it. Not that the question hadn't been answered clearly earlier by someone else:>Impala, Biscayne's only have two taillights IIRCMaybe a "Thank You Dave" is in order?

Safire6 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I'm thinking about doing the Blue Crush car using the AMT '61 Impala SS kit. Never done any weathering before so it'll be a first for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
