Half-Breed and I Restore a 1964 Impala

This should explain why the FD progress has slowed down a little……

Myself and Craig(half-breed) are doing a full frame off restoration of a 1964 Impala Vert. Aside from your typical resto we will be adding a …….you guessed it LS1 into the mix. Anyhow not going to go too in depth here and please don’t question too much of the build as I am just labor I do what the owner wants.

Also would like to thank and recognize the following:
Zac aka Spam16V who does all of my powdercoating
Jesse aka suzukiriderman does our media blasting

Epoxy Primer

Rotisserie

Ready for primer………and I forgot to take pics after we finished hahaha

Yeah…that would explain a lot of your posts…you’ve been sniffing paint fumes all winter. LOL

X…

ls1 = happiness

Awesome, I would kill to have this project.

Nice boat!

Looks sweet. Hydraulics ?

Three wheel motion?

WTF…I Cant see any pictures…must be the work computer

Gnarly! I love it. What color is it going to be? Any other goodies beside ellis juan?

I cut back drinking so I blame it on not enough beer…beer?

Truth

Me too, I need something old

:tup:

Sadly no haha

:frowning:

Not 100% on color yet. Nothing too crazy he just wants fully restored cruiser. Every suspension component replace and entire car refinished. Nothing too fancy

KYBs and Eibachs …weakkkkkkk

Good work… now that I’ve found the right thread, lol.

this is fucking awesome. i love these cars

dude, have him bag it, i know a guy locally that has bagged a bunch of vws, im sure this wouldnt be hard

Kramer, it is. Get back to training FGGT.

Can’t wait to see this when I am home!

Jam the owner is a 60+year old dude that just wants to take his grandkids to get ice cream in it lol. I did try to get him to do bags though. He also wants to do like 16" mags and I want 18"+ dope sauce wheels on it haha.

Ballin

Nice bro

Thread bump for recognition and thanks in first post.

Sweet project! You are good at putting LS1’s where they don’t belong.

Ima put an LS1 in errrreything given enough time.

I love those crazy rigid x frames. u jack the left front up and the only wheel that stays on the ground is the right rear lol
