RDean58 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 My latest project, a Revell '64 Impala SS done as a street machine. I am taking the engine and tires/wheels from the AMT 68 El Camino Street Machine kit and transporting them onto the Revell Chevy. I am going to use the lowered suspension for this build. The tires are big and littles so I will have a rake once it's done. Color I think will be Mythical Maroon. 396 Big block with street blower from El Camino kit. I'm still in the process of building the engine. Tires, wheels, from El Camino kit with headers from AMT 70 Impala kit. I had to move the transmission crossmember back for proper alignment of the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDean58 Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 The engine is more complete now. The intake fit so loosely that I created some "gaskets" out of flat stock and painted them flat blue. The stance I'm going for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I'm enjoying watching your build. I like your "Gasket idea". I'll have to remember that for myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDean58 Posted November 14, 2019 Author Share Posted November 14, 2019 I changed up the tire/wheel combo for something from Revell, they fit the wheel wells better :-) Basic frame done more later.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
