MikeMc Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 (edited) My first attempt at weathering...still have a bit to finish with dullkote, but its pretty close. This started out as a revell 37 / 38 ford pickup Using box parts, some hand cast wheels and tires (thanks again Dan!!) this 6 wheeled rusty rodent was born. Simple build for me, a small chop, but left the rear glass intact and tinted it with limo film tint. Home done gas tank with custom filler , mounted in the stock location. Frame was Z'd in the rear and front axle was dropped and stretched. Edited April 2, 2011 by Stasch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeMc Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Now that is a cool lookin rod & the "patina" looks very good..my only critique would be the wheel and tires look too new and clean Running gear was gone thru and repainted, along with frame and suspension. Wife took checkbook away at this point So reassembly was done.Paint and body will come sometime....... Thats my story and I'm stickin to it!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
