More to come........slowly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Wow, that's one solid piece of resin. I've never seen this kit in person, it looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I have one too, but itsa SOLID chunk of about a pound of resin. Unless your a glutton for punishment, I'd build it as it is. It'd take a YEAR to even TRY to turn it into a fully detailed truck. Oh, an you BETTER wear a resperator, FORGET about a simple dust/painting mask!!!!

cobraman Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I built that box stock several years ago. It really looks pretty good when done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxer Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 It looks like the Lincoln Dairy truck that left those glass bottles with cream at the top in our milk box on the front step .. but that's just me many years ago. Great looking casting. be interesting to see no matter what it becomes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartster Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I saw a 1:1 built as a custom rod in "Classic Custom Trucks" a few years back. Stock body lines, big rims with rubber band tires & BRIGHT yellow. l've loved them ever since. I wanna see what you do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonFL Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I like the clean and slammed look but what if you did something a little different. Maybe do something like a delivery truck or and ice cream truck just laid out. I dunno, always thought they looked cool. Can't wait to see what you do with it.

Harold Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Maybe I'm just warped, but that would make a cool little hearse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin T Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 yeah Virgil if you don't build it makes a great Murder weapon . You can even put the bodies in the back with all that extra room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Slammer Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I have a couple of this kits... I'm working on one I started about 12 years ago, lost interest and now i'm trying to bring it back... Out of the box it looks nice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I've seen the resin bodies available, but never knew of the complete Model Master kit!! Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 First time I've seen this one out of the box, might see about picking one up. First thing that popped into my warped mind. With all those raised and recessed panel lines this one would look great as a woodgrained (with paint) woody and some trendy milk graphics. With all that area to cover it screams for something more than the sorta dated box graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
