Re: 1962 Lightwaight
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: olredalert</div><div class="ubbcode-body">----Its my contention that the "Zintsmaster 62" is the best, most original 62 lightweight Chev on the planet. I have been up close and personal with that car and unless something has happened since I saw it the car is original paint. Plus its an Impala which is what the 62 L/Ws were supposed to be. While the car asked about is pretty, black lacquer did not last back then. I dont care if it was in a hyperbaric chamber, it didnt last. Chris Ps 62 409/409 is by far the best black original paint 62 out there and as good as it looks it doesnt look as good as this 62.......Bill S </div></div>
Bill, I agree with you on all counts. There's one thing I've noticed about the 50 year old black though. It's "blacker" than anything you can buy today. I've had my original paint '62 next to freshly restored black '62s and '63s and their paint has a brown tint to it compared to my old stuff.
