uncle potts Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 This is my tentative plan for the 41 Chevy pickup. The bed will be replaced with a scratch built one. I am also not the most prolific builder on this forum, so you'll need to be patient with me, this may take awhile. Your input is welcome, thanks for looking.

Ramfins59 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 No need to worry about being a speedy builder Paul. We're easily entertained here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Speed is irrelevant. It's the final product that counts, not how fast (or slow) you built it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southpier Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Italeri Opel wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Same thing i was thinking. Or is it a 32nd scale military chassis? either way it's starting off pretty good. No hurry, but keep us updated when you can! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle potts Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Thanks for the comments, guys. The wheels do come from a 1/32 military kit, don't know which one. They have a ridge in the center of the rim like so...

uncle potts Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Latest update, got the basic chassis done. The brake drums were made from small wooden toy wheels. Not sure how much detail I am going to add. This may end up being just a basic build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
