heepey Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 In a group photo with my recently posted Wrangler build. This started as the "Alley Rat" reissue of the Revell Sneaky Pete Chevy pickup. Changed to 4x4 drive train.Wheels and tires came from a toy dump truck. Added some under-hood details and built an engine to resemble a 6.5 diesel with air booster. Troop cover made with tissue soaked with dilute white glue over a brass wire frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heepey Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 Nick, I think the engine is the stock one with a different front cover and intake system. There are some scratch built bits as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gluhead Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I can't think of a better way to put that kit together than this. Not what I expected at all. Pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
