A Sleeper 63 Impala

Here is one that I restored from a glue bomb with the cowling broken off.  It has the 409 with fuel injection for go power.  This was a good experience for me.  The first pic is after I dunked it in the Purple pond to strip it and then found out it was crazed.  It turned out perty good for what I had in the beginning.  This is an original kit from 1963.

Here are some pics of the re-building of this car.  After the White I sprayed it with flat Black and then the Blue.  The grill and bumpers are painted with Alclad chrome paint and this was my first time using Alclad.  It turned out perty good too.

Nice save! I wonder how many plain Jane looking Impalas have pulled to the line over the years since they came out. More than a couple, I'll bet.

I'm going to have to consider at least one Impala SS with steelies on it now. It has "that look".

Thanks Steve.  Here is a pic of the engine with the injectors.  I had to make the radiator shroud and hose.  They both need painted.
