Hi all,
Got the interior started. Touch ups to do and I want to scratch some seatbelts. Engine needs to be repainted red again...

Moving right alone, Declan. Looking pretty snazzy.

Thanks Lyle!
Interior is done and installed onto the chassis. The exhaust is mostly done, need to touch up my glue joints with some paint and its good. The body doesn't sit flat on the frame in the engine bay, and the rear of the body will raise if I push the front down. Im going to need to use some serious CA glue on that spot to keep it together. Next step is to decide whether or not I am going to open up the boot for the weapons and stuff. I also do not know where the ignition coil line goes to from the distributor so it's currently just hanging out. I muffed up my bumper and somehow removed the chrome finish... so I need a new front grill now. Other than that, after body work and paint, it's all done.

Soak power in bleach. Repaint using Molotow chrome open. I'd get the thicker tip for that.
Let it dry for about a week before handling.

Looky here. I need to finish the hood and clear it and get either a new front bumper or molotov chrome pens.

Looks good. I did the two door Impala SS as my 1st Auto kit. I enjoyed it.

Re: Supernatural 1967 Chevrolet Impala (Baby)
So this is as far as I got with this build. Still no new bumper and some of my chrome work has come off again. Pretty happy with the shine, except for the hood. It gave me so many issues with clear...
