Ron35369 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Another of my Impala builds. I painted this one with Kustom Shop Metallic Lime & I used gold Bare Metal Foil on nearly every piece of chrome.
Sam I Am Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Where are my sun glasses ? lol, Lots of Bling on that one !!
Ron35369 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 Thanks Sam! this one was fun to do except for the gold foil...that was a pain.
impcon Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) I bought an AMT '67 SS 427 convertible like this in 1967 and it got lost ( along with all of my other models ) in a move in 1971. I'd love to get another one but the prices are too crazy for these. I may yet cave in and pay whatthey go for for one, but if it is an unbuilt kit, I'll probably just leave it that way and open the box once in awhile and sigh wistfully - what ever the heck that means.. *sighs* Seriously, I'd just like to own another one of those kits and let whoever gets it after I am gone build it. Ideally, I'd buy a decent built kit and just redo it in factory stock form. It's obvious thatyou put a lot of work into your build - looks great! Edited January 9, 2013 by impcon
cooltoys1 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 WOW Dude!! that is killer!! bravo on the paint work, attention to detail and foil work! ok... now gimmie it!
Tom Geiger Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Very nice! Not my style of build but I love looking at other styles. Your detailing is perfect, love your hose clamps. Not a hair out of place.
Danno Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Sweet. Very nice build, excellent finish. Just one thing you could easily improve (in my way of thinking): Put a dark wash in the cowl vent slots and it would really enhance the outstanding exterior appearance of the model. Just a thought/suggestion. (Broken Record Department: I'm not big on gold low-rider wires, but they don't look bad on this ride.)
