    Looks great! what paint did you use on the wheels?

    I painted the wheels Alclad gold and i shot i light coat of Alclad chrome, very subtle to give them a shiny look!!

    Mike, thanks! I used Liquid Glass on the gauges. I sell it at ScaleProShop.com. It's great for stuff like this. Water soluable, can be thinned with water, and dries crystal clear and strong. Check it out HERE.

     

    The tires are rubber, and maybe just a tad too soft. It's hard to reshape them, which they need a little of, but on the plus side, it's easy to make them look like race-worn tires.

    Thank you!

  3. Here's a pickup i built to replicate one of the company's vehicle i'm working for, it's an Hydro-Québec's light duty truck from 1965.

    Because 1965 was the last year with these logos.

    It's been painted the correct gray with Krylon paint, and i did some weathering to represent a few months old truck that have visited a few construction sites.

    It's box stock except for the helmet on the dash.

  4. It's been a while since my last post!

    I had completed this Buick three weeks ago, it's an original Monogram kit with Powerslide decals.

    It's an out of the box build, i had a lot of fun doin' it! 

    It's a replica of the first model i built myself in the early  80's, you can see the original model besides it on the first picture!!

    No idea what they have planned next, but a '63 Fury 2dr ht and Savoy 2dr sedan would be nice, maybe a '63 Dodge 2dr sedan... or '62 versions of those;  or a series of '61-71 style Dodge pickups. 

     Over on the Ford side, a '61-63 F-series pickup, an early Econoline pickup and van would be cool also. 

    Yes the 1961-1963 Ford Unibody pick up with the large rear window!!

    And Vans of this era as well, a missing link in models also!!
