53gmc Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Trucks almost box stock except i swapped out the wheels and tires from the 1950 chevy set, and added a wired distributor, made a fuel line to the carb. The "duct tape" on the seat is thin line tape painted silver and cut down 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smitty Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Great job on this old truck. The weathering looks very realistic. It gives it a time-worn but still viable, and daily driven look. You thoughtfully put a little grime on the tires too. Love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
