imatt88 Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) Hey all, I got these in a box of parts, and I need some help identifying it.. I believe it's a 1963 Chevy Impala, but I'm not sure..... I'm guessing it might be Revell(?), but I don't know which version. It would be a great help to know, so I can begin the long journey of tracking down parts to restore it BTW, I wasn't sure where to put this post, so I did it here, I hope nobody minds Cheers, Ian Edited February 6, 2011 by imatt88
DRG Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 It's a 63 Chevy for sure. Other than that I can't be of any help, sorry.
bill_rules Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) The way the chassis mounts to the body matches the Revell '63 Impala. The speakers in the door are the same as well. I have the 2003 lowrider 2 'n 1 kit. I would assume yours is an earlier issue as my kit has bucket seats, no bench seat. I can scan the instruction sheets if needed.

imatt88 Posted February 5, 2011 Author Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) Thanks guys, Bill, sure that would be great. What do I need to do? Cheers, Ian Edited February 5, 2011 by imatt88
bill_rules Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Instructions are here... http://public.fotki....l-2176-63-impa/
RickRollerLT1 Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) isn't there a new issue of the '63 Impy that just came out a few days ago? Because if your kit (if it's the revell one) is missing some important parts, you could pick it up or track down the donks issues for even cheaper. Edited February 5, 2011 by V-spec
imatt88 Posted February 6, 2011 Author Posted February 6, 2011 Skip, I don't know For some reason, all my pics in all my threads vanished. I have no idea why
Rob Hall Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 The separate decklid nails it as the Revell. Reissued in the last couple of weeks.
MrObsessive Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 The separate decklid nails it as the Revell. Reissued in the last couple of weeks. Hmmm.......I wasn't even noticing the opened decklid! I was looking at the front roof crown as the Revell one always looked more accurate to me than the old AMT version. The Revell one's a good kit BTW------------shouldn't have much of an issue building it when you get all the pieces.
imatt88 Posted February 6, 2011 Author Posted February 6, 2011 OK, well, my pics are back. Good news Bill, got the instructions, thanks Cheers, Ian
