Truck-A-Thon 2017 'list is assembled'


Recommended Posts

ok fellas, let's get this going! "I" want to run this like a contest, but with no real prize at the end, just for fun, and maybe if you guys treat it like a contest it will keep you motivated to keep building.

so, having said that, the rules,

1. must have fun

2 monthly update

3 build whatever ya want, mild to wild, snappers included, clean, dirty, primer, shiny, who cares, make it fun so you want to keep building it.

I guess we can start January 1 and run untill December 31 of 2017, so if interested, sign up, and I will edit this to reflect who's in and what they are building. I will also see if i can get this 'pinned' so we can find it if this takes off.

 

gentlemen, to your benches:D

ok, here is the list so far, if you had your build listed, it's by your name, if you had a couple choices, i left it open for now, pm me when decided, and i will update this list.

I'll play, but will have to think about what with.

 

Is this going to be open to anything that falls under this section of the forum including pickups, vans etc or only large trucks?   

big trucks is the thought for this one, maybe someone could start a build off for the pick ups/vans etc.?

Oh, I'll throw my hat in the ring (so to speak) with the AMT Chevrolet Bison.

Will we be posting out WIP photos here, or should we start individual threads in the "On the Workbench: Big Rigs" section with a title like "2017 TAT - 1978 Chevrolet Bison"?  Just a thought.
