Talking '64 Impala

Got started on my Impala today,so far I have shaved all of the trim down to get a smooth look,I'll start on the suspension soon, It's gonna be sittin' "gangsta style",paint wise I think a lime green would look good.

I always thought lime green was such a pimp color. That chrome will look so nice with it. Give us some updates on what ya got coming.

Yes, lime green is a good color. But everyone and thier roommates Impala's are lime green.Try a Candy Red, or a Blue Pearl. Or you can stick with the lime green and be un-original.

Re: '64 Impala

I did my 64 tamiya candy lime over a light gunmetal undercoat, also shaved the handles etc and had white interior. Very nice but i repainted it later then it ended up with all the rest.

Good luck with doing it, its a nice easy kit that can look great with minimal effort.
