Hi to all, I'm new out there. I'm from Italy, proud to be a little part of this big community
this is my WIP, the Supernatural '67 Chevy Impala sedan droven by Winchester brothers in the TV series.
As you know, there's no scale model of this car, but only of the coupè. So I bought this kit
It's a modified Impala, that makes things more difficult to me, but it was the only one I could find in Italy, and I was a little in a hurry because this one should be a birthday present
So, this is the original body:
I first cut the roof
than filled it with some plasticard
than puttied
I had to make new door panel lines so I puttied the old. In the picture below the center panel line is wrong, later I did it a little better
the hood was the SS one, I didn't make pictures but it was like this
I had to make it flat and with the nerve (or whatelse it's called
) like this
then I make a dryfit to look out the suspension, and it was a bad surprise, too low on the rear. rims ar obviously not from the kit, this one are from a Suzuki Jimny
later I found better reference from the trunk hood, so I rescribed this panel line too together with door panel line
this is the work as today, I made some mistakes on the engine and I need to touch up a little when It will be in his finally position
I made new springs to rise up the rear, new shock absorbers but not in position yet.
on the engine I made new air filter because the kit one (a modified one) was too high for the hood, I think it was to cut the hood and put on the airscope like the picture on the box
some other little pieces that are almost ready
and this is how it looks with the new suspension... better I thought. the body is almost ready to paintjob
sorry for the big pictures but I read that thumbnail with links are forbidden, so I put them in original size..
