This was originally built by me 25-30 years ago. I wanted to keep the paint and bring her up to date using some of the skills that I acquired along the way. First thing that i had to take care of was that straight axle up front. It's kind of a pet peeve to me. Front wheels should turn left and right. Next came the interior. Since I was in there I opted for carpet. Body panels were separated -Still working on that technique. Added ignition wires, heater hoses and battery cables. A couple of new things on this build that aren't on the others are battery cable and heater hose hold downs and real metal hose clamps. Thanks for looking. The rebuild thread can be found here

Great improvements on the old build, it's fun to revisit old builds, good memories of yesteryear and compare our skills to what it was. Great job  on an already good looking model.

Nice looking 64 Impala Steve.  That engine looks pretty sharp setting in the business end.  Great build.
