[AMT] Chevrolet Impala SS '67

Hi all,

Dunno what got me, but I'm on fire! I barelly finished the supra that I'm already starting a new kit ^^

I bought this impala because I love the one in the "Supernatural" Sitcom. I looked on the internet for any diecast of a '67 Impala and there is one that costs something like 50 bucks, but since I don't live in the US, shipping costs just stop me from ordering it. So I searched for a plastic one and this is what I found!

Like the one in supernatural, it is black but it ain't a 4 door version of the '67 Impala, doesn't really matter, I'm not planning on making the exact same one.

The hardcore muscle car lovers might not like the rims I chose, but I think they fit the car nicely. The engine is done but I didn't add any wires...The green paper I put front is a 50 Swiss Francs money bill (needed to hold the front bumper)







cheers!

One of the sexiest shapes in automotive history, as far as I'm concerned. Good start!

Re: [AMT] Chevrolet Impala SS '67

Hello everyone!

First of all, let me wish you all a good new year 2007! Don't know 'bout you but I'm having trouble remembering what I did last night

It's cool that you like the rims. I bought them on http://www.hobbylinc.com/ (just browse through the wheels section and you should find them). Problem is the website seems to be down for a few days now...and I don't remember the name of the maker for these rims :/

I'll probably work on the car tomorrow or this afternoon if I can be bothered

cheers!

You guys are lucky!

Still had the invoice from when I ordered. The maker is "Pegasus" I think:

pegasus 23" Vanquish chrome
