Thor Posted March 13, 2012 Author Posted March 13, 2012 Thank you for nice comments Found a better picture of engine.
Kustom Rodder Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Great job the detail is superb like it alot.
mikemodeler Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Stunning! Absolutely beautiful detail work and execution! That engine compartment looks so real, I had to take a second look.
Albie D Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Wow. It looks like you could turn the key and the motor would turn over and run. I call shotgun!
Ryan S. Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Very cool. That engine bay is fantastic. Great detailing.
Sixties Sam Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 A beauty! Great detail work under the hood! The color is just right! Many years ago, I sprayed candy apple red over flat black and got a color close to that. Yours is better! Sam
CorvairJim Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 I gotta do something like this some day. Your model reminds me so much of the 1:1 427-powered1969 Kingswood Estate my folks had when I was a kid. That thing was the ultimate sleeper! (I already have a 1:25 1965 Z-16 Chevelle wagon in my collection... )
bsoder Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 That is freakin' STUNNING!!!...beautiful work man B)
Thor Posted March 16, 2012 Author Posted March 16, 2012 By Thor's hammer..the engine bay crushes ! Hahaha....so funny Thanks
The Modeling Hermit Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 That is one beautiful wagon, and Chevy should have built it.
PARTSMARTY Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 YOUR MODEL IS ONE OF THE EASIEST I'VE EVER COMMENTED ON.THERE'S REALLY NOT MUCH TO SAY OTHER THAN -"IT'S PERFECT"-ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS-I WOULDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING" I'D LOVE TO SEE SOME MORE OF YOUR BUILDS---"C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S"
David G. Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Excellent long-roof! Wonderful detailing. I love unusual subjects like this. David G.
LURCH426 Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Sweet build. love Chevy wagons,Need to find a 70 Chevelle wagon,Your engine detail is superb.You eve included the wire coming of the voltage regulator, Not many people do this ,I ' ve done this on few of my builds too.
Kanedge Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Very smooth, well done. How did you do the blue bottle in the engine bay?
exnyman Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 A stunning build of a great subject! Masterful blending of the coupe body and wagon roof! This one brings back childhood memories!! My Dad's best friend had a 65 Impala wagon, which he bought new, Tahitian Turquoise with light turqouise interior, 283 with three on the tree. I remember one evening in the summer of '69, my dad had just done a tuneup on it and took it for a "test run"....which meant taking it out on the Long Island Expressway out near Riverhead.....got it up over 100mph.....the first time I had ever been in a car going that fast! I'll never forget what my dad said to me..."Don't tell your mother we were going this fast or you're grounded!!!!"
Thor Posted March 28, 2012 Author Posted March 28, 2012 Thanks for nice replies for the bottle i shaped a bit of clear sprue using dremel and some files. then i painted with some tamiya clear blue with some silver as a cork
