  1. Thanks Brian, this pic shows kind of where I'm going with this build.... close to it with the lift and the boom...... not sure on the colors but......
  2. right, that's why I haven't yet.... too much cash now, hopefully it'll come back out again!!!!!
  3. That's a good question Carl, I have the kit pictured but don't know if it's the same or not....
  4. ahh da parts my man!!!!!!!!!
  5. Ol' North Dakota gets A LOT MORE SNOW!!!!!! My Mother and Father in laws can tell ya that. She's originally from up there in Minot and he was in the Air Force based up there for awhile.... Get a big shovel!!! LOL
  6. Nice looking trucks Brian, Can't say I've been a fan of them but I can see why you are!!!!
  7. Our 68 F-100 Ranger with factory 390, C-6 auto 9inch rear, bucket seats, small opera mirror on drivers door only.. Topper and running boards have long since gone... 68 Ford.tif
  8. Me too Marc, Been a looooonnnnggg time coming for rebuilding this ol' girl!!!!
  9. I know I'll have to re hinge the doors on it as they're all broke and gone.... Not sure if I have hood hinges either, if anyone has some pics of those I can make a set easy enough!!!
  10. I started this about twenty years or more. Started with a Revell Black Magic rig and added the AMT wrecker body to it. Stretched the frame, poorly back then!!! She was a little bent, re cut the frame and pulled it straight!! Frame is stretched about an inch and a half. Right now I'm working on getting chrome parts ready for re plating, frame is ready for paint, got a new set of rubbers for it thanks to Driptroit 71 (Brian), he sent a few Pete decals too that I didn't have for this too. I used to have a good supply of parts for rigs now I don't have anything extra so it's a little tough getting back into rigs and not having extra bits to play with!!! I'll build up a supply again though!!! At first I didn't know if I wanted to build this all weathered out, with the chrome worn off and tires that were rotted to no use and the stains in the bed area from getting wet here and there... But I've decided on bringing her back to show and shine!!! Not sure on color choices yet but leaning towards yellow or red so far... I know this isn't much for a starting photo but this is where it was left off from 20 plus years ago... Body is all stripped as is the chrome.... Now starts the rebuild... I haven't played with trucks in many years so if I'm doing something wrong please let me know!!!!!! Comments and criticism welcome!!!
  11. Good luck on the move, hope all arrives safe and sound!!!!!
  12. Like the photo etched grille!!!!!! Coming together!!!!!
  13. Oh snap!!!!!!! Then we need updated pics!!!!!!!!!! LOL
  14. There ya go!!!!!!
  15. Now this is a great way to dry the paint quicker, tape them to the front fender and go for a ride??!!!! LOL, just kidding, that paint looks mighty sweet!!!!! Smooth as glass!!!!!
  16. That's looking great Brian!!!!! Love it!!!!!!!
