Chuck Most Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Used and abused MPC kit. I mangled the fender, mismatched the hood, and made a grille from grooved plastic stock. The bed is made up of basswood, and the window AC unit was built from various leftover plastic stock and aluminum mesh. I went with the optional turbo and used an Iceman Collections conical air filter. Leftover junk fills out the rest. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Like the way you build such abused looking vehicles. The air conditioning has to make you laugh. Great job with the dirty paint finish and windshield. Like the big rubber and the exhaust stack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chirps Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 This is the way many of them looked after the beds rotted off. Outstanding weathering! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippi Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Nice looking pickup Chuck. I'm digging the AC unit in the back jacked up with a cender block. First thing I thought of when I saw this truck and the background was an oil field truck. Pretty kewl looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
