Ok..for the people who know that im currently working on the GMC I figured i'd let you all in on what I just ordered from ebay..should be here around valentines day which I figured my wife might get excited about all these packages showing up..lol..but ive got plans for her too..lol..,so no worries..I want to build a drift/stanced d21 since I already am making a slammed truck..I orderd 3 kits to build this one truck...I ordered the silvia because of the sr20 and the datsun for various parts..also heres a pic of a close idea..I will start on it asap and continue progress with the gmc as well

where do you get this kit at...all these cars and trucks..I had no clue you could get these in models...ford trucks are not as common in the bd truck scene and I really appreciate it when something is original..looking great -

got home late,..didnt get much done,but had a few ideas and started on them..smooth bed floor..doing the coils on the back...I was thinking since the rear actually works and im happy with that ... I want to add more detail,so I might make it stationary and just go for detail -

BTW where did you find a c10 model at?..I want one of those to build too..I just won a bid on ebay for a nissan hardbody,but since I slammed this truck im going a different route on the new nissan model when I finish this..plus I really like how you have your 4 link triangulated over the DS.. -

thanks..I wasnt to sure if this was gonna work....the wire I used to make the spring stays pinched when I lower it,but If I leave it in 1 position technically doesnt mean its not adjustable..lol -
