XYHARRY Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 My 29 pick-up was given to me by a friend in a poor state from an open used kit he got at a swap meet. All the parts used are from the box except for the wheels which are sourced from the revell/monogram 32 highboy Street rod kit. Paint is tamiya gloss black and light blue with clear pearl and matt black roof panel. Suspension has been worked to get the right stance. Flames are home made stencils. Critical feedback is welcome. Cheers, David BEFORE REBUILD

happy grumpy Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 Great job on the restauration. Giving a second life to a kit is very satisfying.
espo Posted September 8, 2022 Posted September 8, 2022 I like the engine you went with. Nice to see something a little different. The stance and the wheels and tires look good on this.

NOBLNG Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) The new paint job looks great on it, and those wheels and tires are a definite improvement!? Edited September 9, 2022 by NOBLNG
Chuckyg1 Posted September 10, 2022 Posted September 10, 2022 A new life for this little rod. Glad you kept the 4 banger. It came out really good.

carrucha Posted September 11, 2022 Posted September 11, 2022 Nice job on the save. The blue flames look good on the black body. 1
