steve1970 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Hi all, This completed KW represents Will Chandler's 1970 K-123 from the "In Tandem" pilot. Not a whole lot of references/resources available since it only had a brief cameo in the beginning of the movie. The build includes 5 hole budds, modified fuel tanks (no steps / centered fill fuel cap), single exhaust, ugly roof A/C and "California Lines" decals from the Movin' On decal set.

Old Buckaroo Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Wow, this is spectacular build up. I like your style and choice of modeling subjects.I agree with you on how hard it is to find pictures of this truck, it is a photo phantom for sure.
