Wheels Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) I purchased this Jimmy Flintstone resin body at NNL East a couple years ago. I thought it was unique as Dodge's version of a Suburban. I knew it would look good as a fire service vehicle, so that how I will build it. I pulled it out today and here what I have accomplished so far. Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Since this body didn't have an interior. It will mean piecing one together. Two interiors from the Dodge Ram P/U snap kit and the back half of the Tahoe interior. Lookin' pretty good so far!

hooknladderno1 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) Looks good Mark! I like how you did the interior pieces. I too have had one for several years. Just haven't gotten around to building it. Look forward to following your build. Did you have to thin out the engine compartment to allow the kit fenders to fit?

I also trimmed th inner fender wells. I think I'm going to with a Black over Lime paint scheme. I have wanted to do something with the lime paint I have.

Wheels Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) That's pretty cool Jordan! I think Dodge missed out by not bring back the Ramcharger. Here's mine after painting it in Key Lime. I still have to top it off with Black in a couple days. It's looking better than I thought it would!
