Hello hello, I am rafa from argentina, I am using Google Translator, so there may be some translation error ...

I have a 1966 impala 4 doors and I want to do it 2 doors like the chevrolet bel air 1966

As far as I know, both cars have the same measures between axle distance, total length, roofs, etc ... And since in my country there is no bel air 66 I want to do it with my impala ...

The only complication will be the side glasses that I will have to make


I need to know something exactly .. I want to know what measure has long the door of a bel air 1966.

.....................

We already did the same job with a chevy nova II, it cost a lot of work but it was very good.
In Argentina that car only entered 4 doors and with engine 194-230-250 6L

Very nice job with the Nova! Where I'm from we also only have 4-door Novas.
A great friend of mine has a 1st generation Nova converted to 2-door. There is also a 1966 Nova 4-door post that has had the roof and quarters and everything replaced to make a 2-door hardtop. Perfect conversion that nobody could tell used to be a four door.

Anyway, hope you get some help with the info on the Impala. I think that americans probably think it's crazy converting a "cheap" car like a nova or impala to 2-door. Even though I know it is done with some bel airs over there.

Good luck!

Nice work! Are you able to import the correct glass or is that not realistic? Good luck with the project1
