wrecker388 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Looking good Walt. Depending on how far weathered you are planning, I could take some pics of my grandpa's '86 Chevy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt francis Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Only suggestion I have right now Walt is fill in the cab corners at the bottom with a piece of styrene. I haven't got to far into this so what are those for ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt francis Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Need a little help here guys , has anyone built the AMT 84 GMC Pickup ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Walt, I have a couple of those under construction and they build up nice. Those blocks you added and have circled on the instructions are for the lifted version of that truck. If you omit those blocks, you will have a stock height truck but if you are using the kit tires, those blocks are necessary. Keep posting, maybe I will get motivated to finish mine!

walt francis Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 Ok well progress has been a little slow as I have been trying to learn how to use the rusting solution, but got the cab corners done and engine almost done Had to pin the exhaust so they would mate up better Tailgate is all fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
