XYHARRY Posted September 8, 2022 Share 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.
