zaina Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Calling this one done. From the old pics that I could find, this represents a truck that was driven by the gas company I work for back in the 60’s. It was painted with same pagoda green that was used back then. This is the second company truck I’ve built and have ideas to do many more from different decades. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atmobil Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Very nice, I like it a lot. That slight weathering effect really makes it look realistic ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarheelRick Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Super build. Just enough weathering to let it be known this a a true work truck, but not so much as to make it look abused. I have to try that one of these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaina Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 Thanks all for the kind words. As soon as this kit arrived I knew I had to clear the bench for it. It was a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These were in the rack from an old build. Spade, flat shovel, 2 prod rods, post driver and a piece of pipe. All tools of the trade. Also a couple of traffic cones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leafsprings Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Great build, very realistic looking fleet truck. I was holding out for the longbed styleside, but this one might change my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
