    Well I'm going to purgatory in the morning to check the status of the Iron Maiden Impala ( Robert named it ) going to take him some fender patch panels, originally he said I'm going to make them, I said are you sure? Oh well I like the little S%©#, besides no one down my way does that kind of work.

      I saw Iron Maiden not too long ago, they could use some replacement parts too. The very first concert I saw had them headlining in 1982...

        Is this truly happening, can it be true! The Impala could be in full primer by next week. and picking the color. The front clip is off the car and he's welding in some patch panels on the fenders and blasting the hood. Ok I need some ideas on the hood, I'm thinking 2 inch steel cowl. Opinions, it is a big hood. Car will have a two inch drop. Is it possible purgatory has an end? Looking like it, but still a lot to do, suspension, brakes, and interior to be done but that's in MY SHOP!!

          And color, original, a satin original blue, Hot Rod Black,?? Give me your ideas. I'm looking kinda low key but different, I prefer the engine to do all the talking.

            68 Chevy Fathom Blue, Possibly doing the hood like a 68 Camaro SS with the power bulge and "Ice Cube Tray" trim... HMMMM..... just factory enough to keep the unknowing guessing....

              I like the cowl hoods.......2" is believable on a street car.

ID:	1249878 Well it's one color, primer is a color right? Going by in the morning to take him the hood scoop and give it a good look over. Been a long journey to get to this point. Looking forward to getting it home and starting on the mechanicals. I hope that's a light I see and not another train.

                        My post went into the twilight zone, had to post to get it to show again.
                        We laid the scoop on the hood, I believe it'll be just enough. Got a pic but it want load.

Can't just keep waiting. Had to crop the crap of it to make it download. Oh he's supposed to have the back glass and hood finished, we'll see.
