Vande Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Okay so while working on the engine for my impala AWB/Gasser, I stumbled on to a color combination that gave me a theme idea for the car. I will be slow working on this one, but here are a couple pics. Most of the parts are being snagged from one of my new kits, here is a shot of my most recent purchases. On to the good photos: More once I get some more work done!
frozono Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 love the paint job....... want to see more........
deathskull59 Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 cool i like more impalas done up like that. rather than the low rider thing.
dimebolt Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 That big old hemi looks right at home in there. Cool build. Nice job so far. Corey
Truck parts Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 That's going to be one wild ride. Great colors you painted it.
Vande Posted October 2, 2012 Author Posted October 2, 2012 Thanks for the kind words guys. Like I said, the theme was accidental. I had painted the engine block red, and while piecing everything together, I ended up with a couple parts (the oil pan and the carbs) While I was looking at it before I put the scoop on, I noticed the shape and colors really reminded me of the iron man suit. So I ran with it. I do have to redo the paint, when I went to pull the masking, it ripped some of the paint up and off. I have noticed folks talking about custom decals, is there anyone on here that can make them? I have all the logos I need, except the old style lettering for the car name.
rustybill1960 Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Sweetness! I like the looks . . . . Watching this one! Thank You for sharing Later Russ
Vande Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 Since I had to re-do the paint, I changed it up a bit!
Vande Posted October 6, 2012 Author Posted October 6, 2012 I have the engine about 85% done, no pics atm, but will get some taken this weekend. Next up is to work on the interior. Slow going on this one
