greeting been researching about classic impalas your video helped me out a lot more than the big commercial auto shops thank you.

[@classicpatinas]

Thank you man I appreciate that!

I have a ‘64 wagon and ran into the same issue on both sides with the bottom fender bolts. I soaked both with Kroil, let them soak for a day and attempted to remove them. Both came most of the way out and simply spun after than. Neither fender was rusted in that spot, but the bolt threads and bolt receivers seemed to become stripped. I had to work the shims out and push the fenders upward so I had room to cut the bolts. The upper threads appeared to be coated in hard dirt and undercoating, stopping them from completely backing out.

Keep up the work. It will pay off

Front fender removal is hard work. Thank you for the video. I'm doing the same job for the 1964 impala now. I am restoring my own car in Turkey. A difficult but fun hobby

[@classicpatinas]

Yeah it’s difficult, especially when everything is rusty. Let me know if you have any questions.

I have a 1963 Chevy bel air recently somebody hit my front driver fender…. Sad day…. Well today I took it off and didn’t have to take off my front bumper my hood or the inner. Just simply removed all the bolts and shimmied it out didn’t touch the bumper at all

[@classicpatinas]

I tried not touching mine and I couldn’t get it off without removing it

[@josephyarber7166]

What exhaust manifolds/headers did you use..nice project

[@classicpatinas]

I will be making a video really soon on a build break down I just bought another set and they work perfect

[@cajunnick822]

I have a 63 impala and had the same problem with the bolts stripping out, I think it's a shim causing the problem.

[@tresaunders8385]

What size engine is that?

[@classicpatinas]

5.3 with LS1 intake and pan

[@KhalilBrown-zv9cx]

Did you use sheet metal to replace the bad metal on the replacement fender.

[@classicpatinas]

Yes, just some sheets from Lowe’s
