[@jeffyoung8726]

You know Chris, all of your videos are always fun & informative. I continue to appreciate that! And I believe a lot of us do as well? You've got cool music playing during each process. You ALWAYS emphasize to build for ourselves, and not be bullied by the haters! It's always good to know that there is a great model channel to go to. Your reviews are great too! So again Chris, a very BIG thank you for your continued contribution to the model building community out here!

Awesome tribute to AMT keep up the amazing work

[@craigwest8386]

Looks great, Chris!

[@Merylstreep1949]

Your best build to date!!!

1963 my best friend's dad bought him a '62 Impala (demo car). Good news for the rest of us - some pocket change in the ash tray for the .25¢ a gallon PREMIUM gasoline got us rides all around town. Great build. Again, I like your "art" choices for accessories and colors. Thanks for sharing.

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

Good job! Thanks for the history lesson too! I did not know and now i do!

[@kevinsmith7697]

Oddly cool ✌️👍🏻

[@CHixon]

Very entertaining as always. I drove a '62 Chevy wagon in high school. It had the 235 cu in 6-cyl. Yes, you could get them in an Impala. Back then it was just a used car.

[@mx472000]

Great videos as always Chris, and I hope you feel better.

[@alangermann4562]

[@charlesmcclure5994]

[@ronaldhuff635]

Awesome build again, might get one!

[@doublenickelbob]

Love it. Got to get it. Great video Chris, keep em coming, I'll keep watching.

[@josephsizemore8770]

Great build, enjoy watching all your builds

[@lylebriggs923]

Awesome build as always Chris keep it up

[@tikitimescalemodels]

Chris, out of all the youtube model videos I subscribe to, I think yours is the most expensive. This kit is a perfect example. I never would have considered it until you highlighted those oddball (awesome) decals. And, of course, now its on its way. Great video as usual!!

[@michaelcooke2559]

Very nice build. Excellent work on the model, and great color choices. The decals go well with the model. Thanks for sharing.

[@maryfiltz800]

Great job - like the colors you chose.

[@ronroberts2453]

Excellence build & presentation Chris! Great color combination and the decals are spot on, perfect celebration 🍾 of AMT'S 75 years!!

[@acrowe2512]

I'm in the middle of building Don Nicholson's '61 Impala Super Stock by AMT. I've been extremely impressed with the quality and especially the detail. Basically it's the same model as this only modified for racing of course. I would recommend this kit and thanks Chris for showing me what I should have glued together first before I painted it. hehe It's ok, it's all good.

[@vincentrusso4514]

Nice build I like that shade of red paint!!

[@petervitti9]

I wish amt would add a convertible top. I built a reissue a few years ago. Got a resin top from modelhaus.

[@johngligo4049]

Very nicely done Sir! Love the custom look! Definitely going to grab one of these for a future build! Currently finishing my AMT '65 Pontiac GTO Convertible!

[@smithgorrilugum4574]

I love the retro-modern decals. Along with the decals, it would be cool to add an inboard record turntable and beverage cooler. Maybe throw a pair of hipster sunglasses on the dash.

[@davidhinkson8856]

You've come up with some interesting colors for this interior, but they go well with the Kat from AMT decals (He was in the decal sheet for the '66 Galaxie and I just had to use him!). Again, a nice build and another Impala I should put into my collection.

[@williamholmes9195]

Reminds me of the Lindberg 1961 Impala kit.

[@SprueToLife]

Not sure why, but the decals remind me of Major Nelson. Lol nice job I love it.

[@Pokemanic33]

Usually feels a little strange to me when AMT includes their logos as decals but that retro Kat pattern looks fantastic. Great way to celebrate the anniversary

[@michaelsmith1926]

🙂👍👍

[@bunk-bn9eo]

Now I have to get it so I can see what it looks like with mags. Stock. Again.

[@vladtheimpala5532]

I clicked the link and bought the 62 Impala SS Convertible and some accessories to make it more realistic. Unfortunately, the SS kit doesn’t have the 409. It has a fuel injected 427 instead so it’s not stock. Chevy didn’t offer the 427 until 1966. I wanted the 409, but I had to choose between that and the SS option. I might have to do some kit bashing at some point. I do have a 59 El Camino with a 348. Maybe I’ll use that. It’s indistinguishable except for the dipstick. Then I can put the 427 in the El Camino. I’ll figure something out. Too bad you can’t buy just the engine but I guess the hobby isn’t big enough to support that. I want to get this one as close to perfect as I can. Maybe I’ll record myself building it and put it on my channel.

[@billybleedscrimsonblood9478]

Man I was excited about this kit. But! I'm unimpressed. The 62 chevy impala ss is a better kit. It's still a good kit tho. I think I had myself overhyped ! Beautiful job as usual Chris!👉

[@spankyham9607]

Oh baby! Here come the low riders!

[@terrybaptist795]

You know the beach boy wrote a song the 1962 chevy Impala with the 409 engine.

[@richardarios5706]

hello Chris, what spray paint did you use for back panel with the tail lights are

[@hpiguy]

Every spray paint used is shown right before I spray it in the painting section of the video. Thanks for watching!

[@lilypondgarage2968]

I’m glad this kit doesn’t have all the molded in details like exhaust and front suspension

[@robertdundas4593]

Why are so many model car fans bent 1 blade, and do you know the name of the song you've played B4 with the fiddle and guitar? Always sounds like an old civil war tune. Also nice build.

[@scootosan]

didn't Elvis have a car like this or was it Liberace??

[@DBH1962]

Where is the angel hair? Lol

[@vinniemartinez6125]

Looks like a cool kit to build. Id build lowrider style. Candy pearl flake paint job on it with some nice wire wheels on er

[@vinniemartinez6125]

Or all blacked out chrome and all with some nice custom rims on er . She'll look very sharp
