  1. HA! Looks like a Chameleon too!!!! Shedding it's skin er something!!! LOL I should ask my buddy if I can borrow it to strip it for him just to see what would happen and what it looks like underneath all that paint...
  2. Oh yeah!!!! Looking awesome Brian!!!
  3. Looks totally awesome Ken, you know how to make a truck look oh so kooooolllll.....
  4. I also got the Ford Louisville box truck. forgot about that one...
  5. I use Sharpie's all the time, bronze, Aluminum. brass colors for metal parts and window trim, along with blue or red over valve covers and such to give a brighter than anodized look. Along with the application of using them on tail lights and side markers and front turn lights..
  6. Lol, go buy a new one for yourself Rick and enjoy the retirement!!
  7. Now that is a good question Dave!! I know plastic can travel and would be neat to know the history of it!! It’s not my truck but would be kool to see what is under all that paint! May have to ask my buddy if I can do a strip test on it!! Lol anyhow, here’s what I got from him!! Snow plow and built tanker. Two flat beds from old car haulers. May make a tandem drop deck using them with the parts from the other trailer parts I got from him. Unbuilt Amoco and Moebius
  8. He brought up a van full of trucks and parts yesterday and we had a go at looking through the lot. He had 12 boxes, all at 9 inches tall, 3 foot by 3 foot square. Trailer stuff, truck stuff, parts kits etc.. Before I get to much farther, to answer the question in your head, yes I was able to get some stuff. Traded truck stuff for a bunch of car stuff I didn’t want anymore. Ford Snowplow/dump truck, two low boy trailers, two tanker kits, Ford with the larger box and lift gate (Louisville) truck, along with a Moebius 53 van kit sealed. Also two old broken up car hauler frame and lower sections to make a low boy type trailer from the two. Ideas be flowing now!!! Lmbo.... Special thanks to my friend Diesel Dwayne for the help and pics yesterday!! ok! That wasn’t the main reason I started this thread! Lol.... Oh boy, this is a good one! As we were going through one of his boxes I about hit the floor, he had three kits built, bought at a swap meet years ago, one was a 352 Pete cabover and the others (one is just a bunk house off of a 359 Pete) what you see here! Now I don’t know how well you can see the layers but in person oh my goodness! My question is,, how much paint is too much paint???? exhaust manifold is painted to the frame! Rear suspension is almost perfectly smooth from build up of paint! One piece windshield and cab unit??? New and improved “Aero” grille?? So I have this sticker on my workbench and I can’t say exactly what it says! But do you think “That Stuff Will Buff Out” LoL ??? We talked and my Buddy said there has to be at least 60 layers on the Pete!! Yikes!!
  9. True! Cab is left dented and I did float out the “dents in glass” on the hood to make it smooth again! Frame is cut and rear suspension is on, cab floor has been cut to drop cab down over the chassis.
