Chevy II Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Me thinks the long bed is better with the cab being that size. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell C Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Dunno. Did my own bit of photo-altering to see what more open space behind a really short version would look like, and then a bit less so, like your cropped image. I'm still leaning toward the longest version .... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redscampi Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I like the longest bed because it balances the cab well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I learned to use good old Elmers's glue from this board. Sometimes that tacky stick stuff for hanging posters. Sometimes they will stay together for the picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point moving the front axle forward of the grille was also a consideration: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost me a bundle to go through graphic arts school back in the day, always need to keep my hand in it. Sooner than later, I need to start my own permanent retirement career of doing basic inexpensive concept photo alterations like this, along with decal replication/creation, photo etch artwork, and even 3D parts artwork. I'll drive off that bridge when I get to it .... Yep, farther forward front axle looks great!

Mike C. Posted December 19, 2022 Author Share Posted December 19, 2022 In the end, this will be part car and part truck so I'll post it in this thread. I've been amassing parts for this build for a better part of the past year. Now I have just about everything to build a 1/16 '55 Nomad 4x4. I got the rears and suspension from a 1/16 Revell Chevy pickup and the wheels/tires are 1/18 from ACME. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TarheelRick Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Started this one a few years back. Need to get my bench together so I can bring it back out. It is an SRT8RPU. I am considering using a nose piece from the 300C. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
