Sergey Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Hello, colleagues! A Question: does anyone know, if green tint on top of the windscreen (see picture below), was a part of ALL Chevrolet's truck? Or may be it was an option? The reason I'm asking, that I can't spray green tint well. Should I try again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 I think I've found an answer. In my Cherolet Trucks book I can see a picture of 90-s Kodiak without Softray (I hope it's the right name) tinting. So I can skip it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Finally sprayed chassis, plus couple more parts ... and head light recess. I alves slightly fail with masking. But I'm glad, that this part of cab is finished. Though all plastic and rubbers on a cab are waiting.

Sergey Posted January 14, 2021 Author Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) Hello, Gents! Slowly going to finish! Let's start from nice touches. Her I made small red copys from originals, painted chrome. Sunvisors & front stand upholstery (marked with arrows). Glued windscreen with epoxy Rear window I really wanted to make a crushed stone crumb on the tread, as in the photo Yes, I planned to make the gravel in the body from drying pellets. These are sometimes put in new shoes inside bags . I picked it up - from the packages from the glucose test strips. And then rubbed on a spatula (in the photo-on the right). In my opinion, it turned out better than ZIP pigment. And here on the right - a bottle of those pellets. It took me years to collect this amount. Front wheels with nuts & nipples There is almost invisible nippers on rear wheels. Perhaps it is pointless to make a nipple on 10-hole disks. Up grated tanks Some chassis & body views I found another way to replicate mud flaps. In electric shops it is called "heat-conducting dielectric sheet". This rubber is 0.5-0.25 mm thick. It can be sprayed. Ask questions! I will be glad to answer. Edited January 14, 2021 by Sergey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I hate doing mirrors! You however, have done an extremely beautiful job with these! Top notch work!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Excellent details on your interior I like the cord for the air horn and the side window part way up. Looking forward to seeing you finish this long term build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
