Well, it's been a while! Around September of last year, my family moved into a new (older) home. Some of you know when moving, any project you were previously working on, is finished for a while. The Impala took the back seat to painting, plumbing, electrical, etc, etc....
I have a friend who also has a 2 door sedan Impala. He's been on my rear about getting back to work on mine, but I just couldn't find the time. The garage was a shambles, some of my tools were still in temporary storages, and I was beat from home restorations.
Until a week ago.
I am at a point I can start the car project again. The garage is semi-organized and clean. First order of business is adding the new trim pieces I located back on. The passenger side front fender has a dent that needs to get massaged out, so the front clip is getting ready to be removed. The car is original paint, so I'd like to save as much as possible, so trying to find a body/paint expert knowledgeable in restoring/paint matching in the Kansas City is paramount! Finally, I will get the trunk splatter painted. If anyone can point me in the direction of a good coating, please make a suggestion!
I've really missed this place. Feel free to stop by and kick my butt if you don't get any updates soon!
As she sits now. Depressing
