CarlR Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 This was an interesting and fun build but I did find the fit of the hood, cab and front fenders a challenge to correct which unfortunately, in the final assembly did not come out right. The paint job is nail polish thinned with lacquer thinner over a gold base. This finish was not very durable and suffered a number of dings and scratches during assembly.

NOBLNG Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Beautiful! I like the color. Were the wooden bed rails in the kit, or did you fab those? The grain on them and the bed are awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Very nice looking truck. You are correct about the fitment of the hood and the body. I had to massage the one I built also, but it still makes a nice looks little pickup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlR Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 thank you all for your comments Nblng... the wood rails in the bed and the stakes on the side come in the kit. The wood grain is well done and with the right painting technique (or luck in my case) they really add to the truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
