NOBLNG Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Looking good Steve! I really like these earlier trucks.👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Can-Con Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 Haven't polished it out yet but the paint is finished. It's just sitting together loose here. Definitely not going with these wheels, they just happen to be on the chassis when I got it. Haven't decided on exactly which wheels I'll go with yet.

Steve H Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Hi Steve, this is looking great. Pegasus T’s would look really nice, just my opinion. Cheers, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Can-Con Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 I now have the paint polished out and the bed assembled. I just used the AMT GMC stepside fenders on the rest of the Revell '65 bed. I had to put a couple filler pieces on the bottom of the bed sides to close up a gap left as the '72 fenders are a bit shorter than the '65.

Can-Con Posted May 12, 2021 Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 Haven't had a lot of time to work on models the last couple months but here's an update. The suspension and frame is all repainted and the engine is glued down solid. Grille and bumper's mounted and some of the foil work's done. The wheels are also done. Unfortunately, while doing the foil, I put too much pressure on the previously damaged A-pillar and it broke in a couple pieces. All glued back together and reinforced now but the putty still needs sanded down and the area repainted. I also redid the lettering on the tailgate.

sidschopshop Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Can-con, could you post what color green you used for the body? That is very similar to my real truck and am having a hard time finding the color to paint my own AMT kit to match. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
