Thank you for posting this! I am getting ready to start on this exact kit and it will be the first time I have ever done this.

Thanks Doug just bought two. Doing one like the t v show and one stock done a real nice job on your car
JO, Thanks. Glad it helped too! -Doug
Gorgeous job, Doug! I built one for my girlfriend, since she’s a fan of the show. Really easy kit to build.
Jose, Very cool, thanks for watching! -PS, please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
Thank you for the video. Your "extra parts shot" made me realize why I was having problems getting the wheels together properly. I used the wrong parts for the "inner hubs".

Happy 2021
Happy New Year Simon! -Doug
Wow you really nailed it! Looks incredible. 👍
Hey Billy, Thanks a ton! -Doug
Very impressive! Only thing I would have done differently is filled in that little hole in the transmission tunnel for the shifter since the Impala has a column shift automatic.

In my youth I had a 68 impala 4 door, I’m going to buy 2 of these kits, one to build like my 68 and the other in black. Kits looks great. Fantastic job Doug. Happy new year
J86, Pretty sure this kit will be converted to a lot of stock builds from that time period. Have fun. Thanks! -Doug
Bonjour mon ami 👍hello my friend
Great Impala 👍I enjoy watching your video 😎congrats buddy
Good morning of France 👍🇫🇷
Jean Marc, Thanks for watching! -Doug
Very cool! My Dad had a '66 Impala sedan with a 283 in it. I plan on using one of these kits and some other 1/25 Impala kits to try to model one as close as economically possible!
CG, You might be able to make use of the Revell '66 Impala #85-4427 to make a 4door out of this one. -Doug
Very Nicely Done Doug, thanks for Sharing, Happy Healthier New Year to You and All Yours n God Bless All.
Thank you Gary, same to you! -Doug
I just started this model, that's for the tips and ideas.

Nice vid, Nice build, Nice kit!!!!! 👍👍👍
TP, Glad you liked it dude! -Doug
I built mine as a showroom stock Impala using scripts from Model Car Garage, aftermarket resin stock hubcaps, and vinyl whitewall tire stickers. Because the engine is a big block, I added the "427 Turbo Jet" fender emblems. Chevy offered a nice gold metallic interior option, which goes nicely with the black exterior
Joe, Sound like you did a great job! Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
Really excellent looking build as always Doug, keep up the good work 💪
Thanks MJ, will do! -Doug
Bought one to build like the one I grew up around. My parent's car was a '67 BelAir 4-door, 6-cyl column shift, copper exterior with black interior, bought used in '69. Back then, Dad wouldn't pay more than $1000 for a car. Soon after, inflation took hold and there's no way you could keep to a $1000 budget in a full-size 2-yr-old used sedan after that.
RA, Thanks for the wayback and for watching! -PS, please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
Doug+ another great build and job keep them coming I am finally working on my texaco tank trailer like the one you did a while back it's coming along great it is and older kit like you said but of you take your time it turns out a great model thanks for the great reviews and happy New Year
DB, Thanksa man, Have fun with the tanker kit! PS, please help us reach more modelers by subscribing if you haven't done so already. -Doug
Another car kit that Round2 should come out with,is the 1969 Pontiac GTO from the T.V. series Burn Notice.That car was gloss black with a semi gloss white interior.
DR, That would be nice! PS, please help us reach more modelers by subscribing if you haven't done so already. -Doug
About the licence plate the registration sticker suppose to be on the back not the front.

Just found your U-Tube on the build of this Supernatural 1967 Impala. I haven't built these AMT kits since the early 1960's, when in high school. My son who is 30, and his wife watched the show Supernatural, they bought the AMT kit for me to build for them. A couple of areas slowed me down in the build process after all these years away.I have been two evenings now trying to figure out the wheel assembly, as someone remarked below they also had issues as to extra parts. After watching your video, I will try again tonight to get the wheel assembly together to finish this model for my son for Christmas. One question if I can ask? I have had for many years now, the AMT, 3 in 1 Trophy series, 1958 Chevy Impala, kit 2758-200, that has doors that open. The instructions are missing as well as the 348 engine, I must have started the build and just put it away all those years ago. I would like to build and finish this 58 chevy now, but no instructions to do that or engine. Any suggestions would be helpful, Thank you Doug.

@@RightOnReplicas Thank you for the information, much help.
Never say molded in black. I am working on this and I have to heavily primer it so it matches the show car inside tan.,.

"movie"
It's a 15 season show.

PT, Thanks for coming to the light side and give our thanks to GI too! -Doug
Very nice build. Rebuilding some AMT kits I first built in the 1960s. Glad I still have them. This kit is a nice rendition of the 67 Impala. Never heard of the TV show. Did I hear you say you primed the body ? If the plastic is black and the paint is black, why is priming necessary. ? Thanks and have a happy new year. Enjoy the site.
With acrylics primers help with adhesion, but for the most part primers help show some imperfections so they can be repaired before the color coat, and fill small imperfections before the color coat. Other uses for primer is base shading, highlighting or darkening the color coat. Black on black was mostly for the adhesion of the X-1 Tamiya color coat.
@@travisehlers2884 thanks for the info
The engine in the show was a 327 cu.in. It was an automatic transmission, so you should have cut that clutch pedal out. Other than that, it was a good build.

Hey sir, I’ve finished building the interior, chassis, and body. However I’m having trouble fitting it in and I’m not sure where exactly to glue the body to the chassis so it does not move and squeak. Please help as soon as possible.
Rafay, Your glue points will be where the interior meets the window sills and the tops of the fender wells.
Start by inserting the chassis at the rear end then spread the body sides using some flat blades (like a putty knife to lower the body in toward the front. Watch for interference by the engine parts and wiggle it down into position. Hope this helps! We're here to inform and inspire!

Nice build on the 67 never watched the show not a fan of the decal sheet especially the large white 1 ... Happy New Year
CP, Good thing is you don't have to use them if you don't want to! -Doug
Question- I got this for my son’s bday. (turning 31) What colors of paints will he need? Black, tan, orange - anything else? I’m saving this video for him too 👍
Chim, You've got the right ones. All the colors we used for small parts are shown or described in the video though. Thanks! PS, please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers. -Doug
Baby is my dream car
WP, Thanks to Round2 your dreams have come true! -Doug
hey! what glue to use? never built one before but i’m obsessed with the show. i’m nervous about building it
Morgan, Testors orange tube glue will work. Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers!
Did anyone have issues with the decals? I can't get them off the paper!
SN, Let them soak in warm water for 30 seconds. If that doesn't work leave them in the water for 1 minute. They should come off with additional soak time.

Hey Sir. New Subscriber here. Really enjoyed the build. You did a great job. I am 58 years old. What is the difference between enamel and acrylic paints? In my day we only used enamel paints. So I really don't know the differance between the two. Have a Happy New Year.
James, Generally they have different bases. Enamels and lacquers are oil based and acrylics are water based. Acrylics are thinned with alcohol or water and general dry faster than enamels but they are not as "tough" so they demand less handling. Thanks for the sub!
Did you hand paint the body? Because I have no choice but to hand paint. Can’t afford the air brush yet. Also, is there a way to make the trunk open
IDEA, No, it's spray painted. You can use aerosols too. There's a link in the review that shows how to open the trunk. Thanks for sharing and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
Hello, I'm currently building this and going through a checklist of parts and ensuring I didn't miss anything. On my chrome sprue, I have 2 parts labelled 500 and 506 that, as far as I can tell, aren't labelled in the instructions, but also aren't included in your leftover parts list. Most videos I see show those parts cut out of the sprue but don't showcase where they go.
Do you know where they might go?
Devyn, I don't recall those parts either. The sprue block may have come out of the mold that shuts the runner off to mold the parts allowing you to get a gander at something that doesn't belong to this build.
If you send me a closeup photo of the parts, I'll try to identify them for you. righton@rightonreplicas.com
Thanks
Devin, What you have there are parts for one of AMT’s other kits - the ’67 Impala SS. Baby was a column shift car so it didn’t use the center console (part 500) with a floor shift. Additionally, the hood louver (part 506) was strictly found on the SS version. For realism, fill in that hole in the transmission tunnel where a shifter would go.

@@RightOnReplicas thank you so much for your help! I saw something that suggested one of those parts may be a floor shifter and panicked thinking I ruined it by gluing the seats first
Devin, no problem - you're good! We're here to inform and inspire. Please subscribe if you haven't already, to help us inspire more modelers! -Doug!
Did anybody else had problems with the manifolds not staying on the engine even after gluing? I used Tamiya extra thin cement.
AR, I typically use tube glue or a medium gel c/a glue with accelerator for that construction! PS, please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers. -Doug
@@RightOnReplicas I subscribed right after your last response.
AR, Thanks dude! -Doug
Hey sir, which paints did you use in this model car?
Rafay, The body is Tamiya X-1, the interior is Tamiya Buff XF-57 and semi gloss black X-18. Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
I’m a young modeler and love it! Just finished my first one, a Revell Stuka Ju 87g-1. I have a question: do you use an airbrush? It seems overkill, and I wondered if I actually needed it for good modeling
Warner, It's great to have young folks like you in the hobby. You'll have a lot of fun. Regarding airbrushes. Because they use much lower spray pressure you can paint a surface and retain most of the detail. whereas spray cans or brushes tend to load up the detail due to carriers in the paint. PS, please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers. -Doug
I have 2 of them
WD, That's twice as much fun! PS, please help us reach more modelers by subscribing if you haven't done so already. -Doug
I’ve painted mine up, all that’s left is the final assembly! However I’m having one hell of a time getting the body to mate up with the frame/interior. The rear seat/package shelf is hitting the rear window keeping this from going together! Debating cutting it up. Any tips?
Cris, Before you cut - look to where the interference points are first. It may be the interior tub running into to something like the bottom of the window glass. It could also be that the tub isn't fully inserted to mate up with the top of the window sills. PS, please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers. -Doug
@@RightOnReplicas Thanks for the reply! I cut away a bit of material and with some wrestling got it in.
You got yourself a sub!
Cris, You made our day! -Doug
Btw. Do you guys know where I can by enexencive model car kits?
BBCB, Garage sales and swap meets yield best results but I find good deals on eBay all the time. You can get NASCAR kits pretty routinely for under $15. There are where you find them. You just have to look for them. Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
@RightOnReplicas Thanks for the advice. I have looked on ebay some but haven't come across any good deals. Regular or even higher prices. They do have some great vintage kits though. Maybe I need to look more often to find something at the right time.
BBCB, On eBay the trick is to save a search for model kits that allow offers and check it daily! -Doug
@RightOnReplicas Thanks again I'll do that
Great year but Come-on a 4-door.... can't be a muscle car !
I remember when they added this car to the video game "The Crew" ( Couldn't figure out why they would put a 4 door car in a DLC )
Then someone told me about the TV series... I said well I guess that make sense ? So I blame it on the shows creator, you could've used a sweet Impala SS with a 427 , 454, 396.... they missed a great chance for a wicked TV ride 🤐
BB, Well, that's movie magic for ya. A lot of builders clamor for these older four doors. They are almost non-existent in the modern car model offerings. Anyway AMT re-released the 2-door version in 2018 (Kit # 981) so that all is right with the world! -Doug
i am brand stinking new to model kits. my wife got me this one for christmas because im a die hard fan of the show. its clear to me now that these pieces dont just all snap together. what exactly do i need to do this?
Ides, well, get a tube of Testors glue and watch this video tutorial then carefully follow the instructions and put it together. You'll be fine! Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
