Love the builds that look like the box art. Did you cut the frame? I have this kit still unopened.
-
I like the Vietnam ribbon front grille. A signature of all your builds.

What a nice job! In real life this was a rare and short lived model. It was called the Unibody truck because it did not have a separate bed as regular pick trucks do. It was just one piece body like a car.
-
Yes. I posted it on that link above.

Thanks, Angel. I cut it at the cross beam, the one in-between the fuel tanks and mud guards. My WIP thread will show how it was done.
Thanks !

Absolutely beautiful. Where did you cut the frame? I got the same kit and also want to cut it.

Thank you guys. I had a lot of fun building them.

WOW, I started this thread 5 years ago. I ended up using Model Master, Medium Green FS 34102. The can top (cap) has the number 1913 on it. It is not metallic though and is a flat color. I clear coated it 3 times with Testors High Gloss Clear TE 1814 . This is how it looks like. One of my favorite projects.

I always wanted to learn to weather like this. This one is nice.

That's what a pick up truck should look like, simple. Wish they would still make trucks like this.

Bro!!! You've got quite the collection going on, there.... I'm diggin' all of them... I love what you've done with those snappers, especially.... Turned them into some really choice rigs... I know I'm impressed... The other builds are no less appealing... Incredible...
Thanks all. Hey kilrathy10 (Williams) , I remember you. I used to post here all the time a few years ago. I took a long break. You still painting your trucks orange? You did good trucks too.
Here's two more.

the lateral lader of the trailer ??
The trailer comes with a back ladder. Just move it to the side.

I did one of these as a Rubber Duck too. I scratched built the front rack and a few other parts. For the wheels, I filled all the holes but two opposing ones with putty and made them as two holes wheels as in the real truck. The decals are in http://www.modeltruckin.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3_33&products_id=146

Nice job. Do you have a photo of the original car?

This is how a pick up should look like, simple. Wish Ford and the other two would still make trucks like this one.
Put the gun in a rack in the back window. They were common back then.
Nice job.

Alberto;
Thanks for posting this. Your conversion of your F-150 turned out great. I liked so much what you did that I got this idea from you.
I drive a Red F-150 with those steel wheels. I had a Welly F-150 in 1/27 scale and always wondered if those "steel" wheels even existed in scale.
Then I saw your post and bought me the Ford Expedition kit and converted mine to look like my bare bones truck.
Thanks for posting all the details, it helped me a lot.
