happy grumpy Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Here's a quickie before I call it a day. Straight out of the box. Went somewhat well but I had a hard time fitting the hood to the cowl and radiator/grill ass'y.I Ended up gluing the hood shut, hoping it wouldn't end up hitting the roof if it popped up. CA glue to the rescue. The blueish hue of the background makes it hard to photograph that shade of blue/ grey(a mix of acrylics paints with a clear coat). I should have used a warmer light. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippi Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) That looks really nice Mario. I like the blue. I always liked the running boards to be black as it breaks up the color. Very well exicuted build. I'm kinda parcel to 37 Ford pickups since I had a 1:1 street rod. Edited October 21, 2021 by Zippi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intmd8r Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Nice work-fantastic build as usual. The Revell’37/‘38 kit is one of my favourite. I’ve consistently had challenges fitting the hood/cowl/grill too, so you’re not alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Great looking pick up. Most of the OEM trucks of the day didn't enjoy such a nice color. The nice thing is you get to build it your way and thisd looks nice and cleanly built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
