1964 Chevy C10 Fleetside Pickup

I call this build MELON BOMB. I built it as a Watermelon Farm truck. This is a Revell kit and I was very impressed with how well it went together. The paint is a Rust-Oleum Gloss Apple Green over a Rust-Oleum Flat White primer with a Rust-Oleum Gloss Clear Lacquer over the top. The decals on the doors are custom made from a picture I found on Google and printed out using an inkjet printer on some clear label sticker paper. The decal is also cleared over. The wood bed and rails are real wood Popsicle sticks with a real Golden Oak wood stain painted on. I wanted the rails to have a little waterfall look to them so I very carefully cut one corner off each Popsicle stick and sanded them smooth to get the rounded shape. The chrome trim in the bed is some styrene rods I got from Hobby Lobby and painted with Molotow Liquid Chrome. The lettering on the bed rails are painted on using a custom stencil I cut out on a Silhouette vinyl cutting machine and painted with some red acrylic craft paint and a round paint sponge I got from my local Dollar Tree store. The interior is painted with a Red acrylic craft paint using a paint brush and the same color I used on the body for the dashboard, door panels, steering wheel, and steering column. The seat inserts are made with some watermelon seed ribbon I found on Etsy. The same ribbon is also used on the lower section of the door panels where as the same Red paint that is used on seat is painted on the upper part of the door panels. The fuzzy dice that are hanging from the rear view mirror are 3D printed and painted to match the interior with the same green color that was used on the body for the dots. The string holding them on the mirror is some green colored embroidery thread. The carpet is Red craft felt. The seatbelt buckles are 3D printed and the seatbelts are made from some red ribbon I got from Hobby Lobby. The gauges cluster is made from a picture I found on Google and printed out on some glossy photo paper. All the silver parts of the undercarriage are painted with a silver acrylic craft paint. The engine is painted the same color as the body with the red details. The battery is a 3D printed Optima battery. The radiator hose is made from some hollow rubber bead tubing with a piece of bead wire inside to keep it in position. All the tiny red details on the engine, interior, and chrome trim are all painted by hand. The watermelons and the wooden crates are 3D printed and hand painted. The license plate on the back is one I custom designed and is printed out on some glossy photo paper. The wheels are painted the same color as the body. I tried to make this build look lightly customized but at the same time as a working farm truck that you'd see at a farmers market. This is one of my best builds and definitely one of my favorites.
