Bob Ellis Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Very nice job on this 64 GTO. Detailing can make all the difference. I remember my brother put spacers in the coil springs of his 62 Impala to make it sit higher. It was common in the '60s. I have this kit, but have not built it yet. I am curious how high it sits
crazyjim Posted September 25, 2014 Author Posted September 25, 2014 Thanks Bob. My build has not had the suspension modified from what came in the kit.
mopar_guy1 Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Wowww. What a beautiful color. And superb paint job.
sjordan2 Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Beautiful paint and body work, I wish you had a sharper image of the engine. But the ride height just looks really wrong, as others have said.
crazyjim Posted October 2, 2014 Author Posted October 2, 2014 Thanks Skip. Ride height is what it is.
wayneman Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Great paint job and exterior detailing; but what I really like is the way you handled the interior. I can never quite get the flocking to have that "real carpet" look, but this is spot on! Great work.
crazyjim Posted October 3, 2014 Author Posted October 3, 2014 Thank you Wayne. I use only Ken's Kustom Fuzzi Fur (I also sell it through Crazy Scale Auto Parts). Get yourself a tea strainer at the store. They're only a couple of bucks. Make sure the floor paint is close to the color of the flocking and is FLAT - not glossy. Lay out a clean sheet of paper. Spread straight Elmer's glue to the floor area with a small brush. Dump the flocking into the strainer and use a finger to move the flocking around inside the strainer making it fall through the strainer. Do this over the clean sheet of paper. When the glue is dry, turn the interior upside down and lightly tap out the remaining flocking onto the paper. Use a dry brush to dust any excess off the interior. Dump the excess flocking back into the tube. Hope that helps you, Wayne.
