IMPALA SS 427 Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) I also got the other door out of the drivers side and started on the b pillar. so far i have the basic shape and i will do more work to get all the detail in. i am putting almost all my attention on the body to get that done and ready for casting. I have decided that i will make 8 or so copys for myself if all goes to plan. anyway heres the drivers side: I have yet to start the other side because as is the body is a bit weak, i will probably ad some bracing in places that will help keep it in one piece for when i make a mold of it.

IMPALA SS 427 Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 Well, it took me 8 years to get back to this one 😳. I have had some time off with nothing beter to do than dig out some old projects. I painted the new resin hood i bought about 8 years ago, the original was warped and all the filler i used made a big sink mark in the center. Looks much better now. Old hood: New hood:  Got a good start on the other one: As you all know there is a supernatural impala kit out now (which i have one set asside to make a really nice supernatural impala) i'm not sure if this one will be a supernatural impala. I'll be making a 4 door hardtop with all opening panels but colour, wheels and interior will be different. Will be getting back to the bodywork soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
