Thank you, to both of you. Its nice to hear it from others.

Looks pretty good to me and  I agree , we have all been there!  Its possible with every build and if you don't screw something up at some point...your not doing it right!

I hope i could maybe one day rebuild it or find another kit later on and try again

I have kept some of my early builds, and later on grabbed another of the same kit, to see if I could improve on it. Sometimes, that's easier than trying to redo one.

This build looks like a good effort. Keep scanning the forums and learning as you go. That's how I do it, and I've been at it since the sixties!

check out the tips and tricks section here...there are hundreds of excellent posts on how to be a better modeler.  if you have questions: just ask...the guys here are great and I shamelessly ask questions and steal ideas.

Youre probably right, wouldnt hurt to have two of these around. And thanks for the idea i will definitly visit that section.

Sounds like you had fun! That's kinda the whole point   Cool truck! I have one of these kits waiting to get built; at first I wasn't into the subject matter, but those 70s-style trucks have been growing on me lately, so I'm looking forward to it.

I saw one of these at a local car show when I was younger and I loved them since.
