Building this one for a Box Stock entry into a CBP over on my forum,but thought others might enjoy it here as well. It be Revell's newly tooled up '62 Impala 2'n1 kit,being built as the drag version (a little off my normal). Here be the kit...

I got it cracked open,and cleaned up,sprayed the white primer last night (all over that bare white plastic,LOL!)...

Just getting started in what will be a long day for me,but time (and gumption) permitting,I'll clean and spray the chassis/suspension bits this eve.

The only imperfections I found in the body were minor mold lines on both rear corners,and both front fenders (just forward and above the molded in Chrome trim's tips). All were easily removed...AWESOME tooling Revell! Nicely done! ;D

How can it be a 'box stock' when you be building the drag version Brother Steve?

I mean, 'stock' means 'stock', right?

;DJust kiddin' ya Bro! Love those old time racers.

Good choice on the white primer, and it looks goodly, will make the gloss white really look good. So ii's a 'white on white on white' ?

Looking forward to seeing it come together

Later and God bless

Trust in The LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight. In all your ways, acknowledge HIM, and HE will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes, fear The LORD, and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones.

Got the body sprayed last night )Testors rattlecan Gloss White). Can't really see much shine in these pics,but after gassing out a week,I'll add decals and (sigh...) BMF it,then shoot some clear to seal it all. Gunna try and get some headway on other parts of this one tomorrow
