Verne Frantz's 63 Impala Anniversary SURVIVOR

[Paul_S]

I remember reading in NNN about how the cars were built at Norwood. They said (as SYC mentioned) that the firewall & floors were painted, then the body. If there was a paint issue, the car was pulled and repaired. One Nova I had ('64) had original body color overspray on the firewall and a layering of black/body color/black under it. I figured the body/cowl needed a touch-up, then they re-shot the firewall. Somewhere in the mix was some of the dash paint. -I think it was first.
