bigred63 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Richard, you're building my Favorite Truck, with my body type, a winch tower. Awesome looking model so far. Can't wait to see the finished model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madd Trucker Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 (edited) Thanks JT your builds are awsome . I found for me using duplicolor white primer and Duplicolor Acrlic white work the best for me . the engine was 3 days of work to detail it . Jim thanks detailing for me is a week long project . Bigred I still have more to do onthe winch tower before painting it . Edited October 2, 2013 by Madd Trucker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7000in5th Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Great looking build! Glad to see that you did your research and put the air intake grille on the left side of the hood with the bars vertical, not horizontal as the instructions (and mounting pins) indicate. Excellent!
