After seeing Daxman's Datsun 510 post-apocalyptic sedan-truck, I got an idea. I had a Datsun pickup body and interior on my stereo desk, and I just bought an RC tank at work for an apocalypse car mashup.... Only natural that this happened. This was only one night, so there are some thing that should need doing, like a couple more details to cover over goobers... but that'll happen in a few months, probably.

Revell Escalade EXT engine... *ahem* "engine."

Someone tried to chain-lasso this thing, and lost an arm in the process, Mad Max Cundalini-style. (It's Casey Luna's arm, from the Monogram kit.)

Double-lever steering, these were made from parts-box shocks. The seats are from a Revell Willys pickup.

So, yes; there are quite a few rough spots. I could do better with some weathering powders, my set of which I have lost. However, it looks good on the shelf, and I like that.
