Platerpants Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Oh yes i went there after all these american vehicles i'm scratch building an import pickup. I honestly think that stakes work for it too. what do y'all think? Now this is my first scratch build attempt so don't expect perfection. It is in the very early stages of being built, what im doing is tracing the body panels onto thin plastic then cutting em out and tracing those onto thicker plastic then cutting them out, i know there will be some freehand panels that cant be made tracing. It will scale out to be 1/25 maybe a little smaller but should be close enough. Edited October 12, 2014 by Platerpants
kilrathy10 Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Hey, looks great, so far....You've definitely got your work cut out for you, though.....Good luck, Man....
Chuck Most Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 I don't think Titans have stake pockets, but I think the look is promising. I say go for it.
Platerpants Posted September 20, 2014 Author Posted September 20, 2014 thanks guys, i will keep this one updated.
Platerpants Posted September 27, 2014 Author Posted September 27, 2014 got the windows open on it trying to piece together the interior and finish the cab. The front seats and dash are from a ford lightning, the back seat came from somewhere in my parts bin. again dont expect perfection but keep an open mind, this is my first scratch project too so input and tips are welcome, This will not have an engine though.
blubaja Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 This looks cool. But the Titan is an all American truck.
chunkypeanutbutter Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 I'm too afraid to scratchbuild a car body... Keep going!

Platerpants Posted October 12, 2014 Author Posted October 12, 2014 This looks cool. But the Titan is an all American truck. Thanks, what i meant by import was Japanese company not american (Ford, Dodge, Willys, GM, Tesla, Shelby SuperCars)
