In Progress- 67 Impala Pro Touring

here i am with another model...
67 impala is my fav. Impala. I was gonna first do it lowrider style with hydros and stuff but i decided to go with pro touring style...
everything is box stock with this model.. i am not really in a mood for detailing...
chassis itself is really detailed. some fit problems but nothing major
used pegasus draggar wheels.
paint is tamiya TS-50 mica blue. this is my first time with tamiya sprays and all i can say is they are well worth the high price tag. so beautiful. thats the shine after the 2 mist coats and 3 wet coats.. gorgeous...

thats lookin :evillol:

Sweetness!!! I have a Teal one started that just needs the right set of wheels and some final assembly! I hope yours turns out well!! :sunglasse :sunglasse

some more progress photos.
removed the plastic grill and placed the PE grill and emblem in place. was much easier than i thought.
Interior is simple as it gets.
its metallic matt black.. looks like satin.. i really like it..

Looks very cool! I love that photo etched grille :sunglasse

Was it a lowrider kit to start with?

kewl! :thumbsup:

Thats sweet. I love the rims and I love the color of the body. Keep the pics comming. :grinyes:

no, it wasn't a lowrider kit.
i don't think if they make a 67 Imp lowrider kits. this is AMT tooling 67 impala super sport 427 .

Looks very cool! I love that photo etched grille :sunglasse

Was it a lowrider kit to start with?It is classified as a street machine with a slightly lowered suspension which would make it a cinch to become a lowrider. Mine might end up being a lowrider. :p

Pegasus hobbies rims are awesome..

finally some progress....
well its raining out so i decided to get some building done...
attached the body, and bumpers and stuff.. still gotta paint the hood and do some detailing with PE parts...

Holy sh*t thats a freaking cool car!!!!!!!!!

I thought that the rims would be bigger cause it says 20in. rims on tower hobbies.com

That is nice!! I'm going to have to build an Impala sometime.
