BIGTRUCK Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 this body and chassis sitting on the end of the bench for two years, got tired of looking at it and decided a Sportsman class modified. First cut the wheel wells , filled in the panel lines , removed all trim , second redo complete interior borrowing items out of a Revell 1/24th kit , third front of the chassis is easy , but the rear is the challenge , Revell kit also gave up the tires and rims , rear end and suspension pcs. A 2 tone paint scheme from the early 70's for colors , these are again new waters from my bench and we'll see how it turns out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
