Supernatural Impala,1967 4 door hardtop conversion. UPDATED! 10/3/2011

 

As a huge fan of Muscle Cars and die hard Supernatural fan, Inspired by Sperncer's fantastic build I will be creating a customized 1967 Chevrolet Impala Caprice, 4 door hardtop.The Basic plan for achieving the four door conversion is to use the front half of the standard AMT 1967 SS Impala kit and partner it with the rear roof pillars donated from a Revell 1969 Camaro Kit. So that's the plan. If anyone has some suggestions that will help make the project run smoother, any parts for suggestion or for offer let me know.

 

My inspiration for the build:

Here is an excellent gallery of another Matallicar build by a German Modeller:

UPDATE:

Just a few quick pics. I have recently removed the rear roof . After having only just removed the section of the roof section that will be transplated onto the AMT Impala kit from the Camaro, I'm actually feeling really confident in the build. I will be doing the roof tranplant over the next few days so expect more updates fairly soon.

 

 

PS. The photgraphs were a pain to take. Many minutes of filters and editing in photoshop to achieve. That's what I get for taking photo's at night.

I'd also like send out a big thanks to Bridgebuster who most generously donated the 1969 Camaro shell for the Project, Johnny G who also donated the GSX rims. Thanks guys.
