Taxdude Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Finally back to building after not have a modelroom for 8 months. Here is the mock-up of my art deco hauler. The cab is a resin piece (can't remember who made it). The bed is 100% scratch built. The racer is a '55 Corvette. So much to do yet. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris chabre Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 KILLER! I absolutely love the bed design Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1930fordpickup Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 I second the love for the bed. I really like this project. The cab looks like a Ron Cash resin product. But I think other have done it also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phildaupho Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 This is going to look fantastic. Very well integrated design of all elements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 The resin body is a great representation of the White cab. Besides the great looking bed the design of the sides looks good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I go for a matching hauler and racecar combo. Or a mix of colors. I keep going back and forth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a couple of 2 or 3 steps back but in the end I think it has the deco vibe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks as if this builder found an old Fire Engine and turned it into a car hauler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
