curt raitz Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I saw a photo of a RatRod truck with a guitar shaped nose in a magazine. Decided it would be fun to build something like it in 1/25th scale. So here it is...started with the Revell 1941 Chevy PU, chopped and channeled the body, rebuilt the bed, added Replicas & Miniatures fuel tank, installed a Chevy V-6, tires from parts box added to kit wheels and scratch-built the guitar grill. Painted primer red and used Rustall to dirty it up, decals are from Steve.
