The Retro Ranger

Here's a link to my latest abomination in styrene:

There you'll see some WIP shots, as well as the finished '53/'93 F-100/Ranger hybrid amalgamation thingie that resulted! Think of it like one of those '89-'97 T-Birds with the '49 Ford nose and tail added, except it seems to work a bit better on a truck! I've wanted to try this build for a while now, and thanks to Dan (Pro Mod Merc), I finally got the raw material I needed to pull it off.

Oh, Chevy guys? I just posted some pics of my '3rd/5th gen' Camaro on my Fotki page, as well. It's based on that Steve Stanford rendering from Hot Rod a few months back.

Great work. There are features I like and others I don't but the workmanship is top notch.

Nice work, Chuck! Like Rob said, to my eye (and, truth be told, as is the case with most radical customs) there are some elements that work and some that don't. Still, the workmanship and the concept are both top-notch!

Yeah, pretty much the same conclusion I came to! For everything that came out exactly as I envisioned, there was at least one thing that blew up in my face! Whenever you hack up a kit like this, there are bound to be a few snafus along the way! But, I'm about 85% satisfied with how it came out! :D
