RickRollerLT1 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Built from this kit Which also had custom parts for the George Barris hot rod version. Some of the customizing parts looked goofy or didn't fit very well, so I sourced some bits and such from the spares bins to make a modern pickup rod. Mods as followed: Independent front suspension made from Ferarri Enzo pieces and Monogram 1992 Corvette A arms Monogram 1992 Corvette also gave it's independent rear suspension + axle. Wheels and tires are from a Revell Motor City Muscle '69 Shelby GT500. Disc brakes are from a Hummer H2 Kit's custom exhaust was lengthened at the end using pieces from Revell Shelby Series one kit had a wooden style flat bed, or a bed that had seats going on it but no side pieces, which isn't street legal. An AMT 1953 Ford F150 pickup bed was used with a custom rear clear tailgate made using a Hummer H2 rear window cut down to fit Exterior paint is Tamiya TS-58 Pearl Light Blue over Rustoluem Silver, cleared with Pledge.

Tom Geiger Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Neat! I built a strip car using the body with the old Monogram Green Hornet chassis. Ken Kitchen did some interesting conversations with this kit too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpt Tuttle Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Of all the builds I have seen of this kit, I think that this is my favourite. Different, and I like it very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
