This is where iam now, i bought a resin hood off of ebay for this truck, ive never used anything in resin, the model is show without the resin hood

Looks great. What made you decide on a resin hood?

[gray07]

Here is a picture with the resin hood, iam going to you this hood but i want to use the hindges from the kit hood, well since ive never used resin before , what kind of glue do i use to mount the hinges to the resin hood

Resin and CA go together like Step and Side. That's what I've always used with resin. Have yet to have any adheasion problems, Nice truck so far, I like the Cowl Induction hood on it.

Not really much difference other than the shape and location of the side badging. Here's a good place to see the differences in them. http://www.stovebolt...allery60-66.htm

I guess i need to get working on it again, i just lost interest

[LAV25]

Please do keep working on it, I had a '66 Stepside and I love where you're going with this!

p.s. where did you find those tires and wheels? They look perfect.

Tuff looking truck.It would look cool with gunmetal flames.

[gray07]

The wheels and tires came out of my parts box, so i really dont know the kit they came out of. thanks for the interest. Oh question, should i leave it flat black or do it white, i like both colors.

[richcrabman]

you can use super glue for resin.just rough up the surface of the the resin where you want to glue.then that will give the glue a nice surface to stick to.or you could use 5min epoxy from auto shops.........great looking truck btw.and it looks perfect in matt black.
