  1. Here's some pics Nick. There is some differences from the 94-97 s10/sonoma's and the 98-04. Mines a 1999 sonoma sls, 2wd, 4.3 vortec v6. My truck puts out about 180 hp. The diferences between the 93-97 and the 98-04's is the following: Different front end treatment (bigger lights, grill, front bumper) different intake on the 4.3's rear bumper is a real metal bumper vs the cheap plastic ones on the older truck different interior ( dash(resembles the 1999 silverado dash) seats, door panels etc.... Thats all I can think of right now! So here are some pics!! (BTW I found these pics on my computer so there a little old and no it's not snowing out!!) you could easily make this a 98 or newer sonoma by using the revell 1999 silverado as a doner kit for the rear bumpber, interior etc... But then if you were really picky you would have to modify the front end a little bit. If you have any other questions, let me know!! Can't wait to see your truck!! (BTW I can post the pics in the work in progress section when you post the truck. Just let me know)
  2. Hey guys! Been awhile since I got some stuff done on this thing but now I'm going a totally different direcion on this thing. It's now prostreet and has alot of work done, but still alot to go!! First I half cabed it because I seen that bronco and so I wanted to do it like that. I cut open the doors but there not glued on yet so they don't look right. ( the drivers side door was being glued on while I took the pics. I've just started building the tube chassis, This is my first time so tell me what you think. I still have to replace some piceses and still have to build the rest up, but it's a start! And I still have to shorten the rear axle so it will fit in between the frame ralls because of the slicks!! I'm going to build the bed after this so tell me what you think! Rember it's my first time buildin a frame! thanks for lookin and tell me what you think!!
  3. hey Dukefan69', I know I still haven't posted any thing on the scout but I have to withdraw from the contest. I just don't have time between school and other builds that have to be finished before the scout. I appreciate you letting me join but I just don't have time and I am going to scratch build almost everything on it since I'm turning it prostreet. Thanks again and you guys will see it again.
  4. What do you mean. I just watched it and there was nothing wrong with it and the model builders on youtube didn't say anything and TRUST me they would! Let me know what you mean.
  5. ok guys here is a little update. I was trying to make a cowel for it to bring the windsheild front up to where it was sopose to be and it wasn't lookin right! So I found the cameo's hood and grafted it onto the mustang hood Then I extended it with some styrene and now has the first coat of bondo on it. Still along way to go! Enjoy the pics and tell me what you think!! Ok guys here is a custom sub box that is in the process of being built and just needs to be wraped and sanded and here I'm going to graft in 55 cameo wheel arches and reshape the front ones and it's name for now is bondo buddy! Thanks for lookin
  6. Oh I know there's alot of body work but it's part of the fun! (even though I hate it)
  7. hey guys, I just finished this one after about a week. I did it to refresh my self from the international scout I'm working on. It's revells 98 pontiac trans am ws6. It's box stock except for the nos tanks and the t-top. I cut them out with my knife and put some styrene in there to replicate the real one and was all bondo in. the mirrors still have to be installed and the t-tops still have to be finished. Thanks for lookin and enjoy. if you guy want to see more of this and my other builds check out my youtube channel: youtube.com/bowtiebadboy33 tell me what you think and thanks for lookin!!
  8. Whats up guys. I'm posting another work in progress for a model contest going on youtube. it is a contest where you have build something out of stuff you already have. so you can't go out and buy any new kits for this so this is what I got going on! The front clip is from a 92 mustang "lowrider" from revell that sucks!!!! the cab is a glue bomb chevy cameo cab the has been chopped, and the bed is a 55 bel air front end that has been lengthenend. It's really ruff right now but I need a name for it. now enjoy!! If you guys want to join the contest let me know and I'll tell you guys how to enter!! thanks for lookin and tell me what you think!!
  9. Sorry I haven't posted anything on my scout for a while. I've put it aside for a week While I work on finishing a 98 trans am ws6. I should start back on it by the end of the week(hopefully!). I probly won't get it done by the dead line because I half cabed it, put in a shortend 99 silverado bed, and still need to build a roll cage, build the back half of the frame and finally asembly! I'll post pics some time soon!
  10. ok thanks man, can you add me to the list and when is the dead line? I'll have some update pics up soon!
  11. Hey guys can we see some pics of the kit? I'm quite interested in this one!
  12. Hey guys, I was wondering If I could enter this. I am working on my international scout that I've have posted some mock up pics a few days ago. Just wondering, it would be great if I could.
  13. I think it gives the truck a unique look that makes it different. If I remove it I think it looks like a bronco. But thanks for the sugestion!!! never would of thought of that
  14. I am going to add a speaker to each door, I just forgot to say that. If you don't mind scaning those pictures that would be great!! and thanks for the comments guys and more progress soon.
  15. and here is the custom cover for it The paint I'm going to use is testors one coat lacquer inca gold. I'm going to tape up the top and try to simulate a vinal top even though they never came with one(I think). It will be black and I it will look cool!! More updates are soon!! Let me know what you think.
  16. Hey guys whats up. I decided to post something for once because I'm usally always busy!! But anyways My build is the amt international scout. I got inspired to build one after I seen that military themed one but my is going to be way different!! Leave comments and critisizum!! ENJOY! Here is the box <img src="http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo174/bowtiebadboy33/sonoma010-1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /> side panel <img src="http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo174/bowtiebadboy33/sonoma012.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /> This kit I desided to make it custom because there wasn't many parts to it!! I shaved all the trim to clean up the body, It's sitting on 92 mustang suspension, and I think it looks awesome!!
