Fantastic work

That really turned out awesome, it definitely looks ready to work ! Add a flatbed behind it loaded down w a few of Keystones new options and its finished . pallets of concrete bags , shingles , plywood stacks anything would look right

Holy smokes that's tiny ! Even my squirrels broke out the reading glasses to see the pics lol Glad to see ya back , looks almost ready to paint after snipping the pour plugs

I have a bunch of new paystar tires if ya need em

Thanks for the link those are exactly what I was planning to use on the conveyor chain in sander...and they note it's the same sold by Grant . Awesome work on the paver

Could you share a link to the chains Hahhaha see what I did there ??

Working on a 53 also, but it's a resin crew cab Planning to fab a custom frame and drop in the weeds , your project sounds great

Great back story !!! Your really gonna have fun recreating this truck

Your doing exceptional work on your under lift !

Excellent work and craftsmanship Every part really looks like the real item

Looking forward to your coe

The chains really look good on the tires

The paint is dry, so it's time to start final assembly!!! The plow got a few touches of black along the discharge end , and the road scraper The frame and sander hopper is semi gloss black , the diamond plate fenders is buffed aluminum plate, and fuel tank ended up dull aluminum. I might lower the black area on plow , the real one had more showing from the side ..we'll see

Nice and dirty ! Definitely watching this develop

Nice !!!!

Heres the orange after drying overnight...later I'll airbrush the anti glare hood

Glad to have ya along.! Your project sounds like a fun build

Dont get discouraged , its Feb now and still plenty of time to finish your build ! Really looking forward to your build, these trucks arent seen as frequently as other kits

Your making progress !!! Too bad your having paint issues , they definitely stall a build . My plow build had similar issues . I washed the resin parts like always , then sprayed primer. Small fish eyes appeared in spots.. an annoying issue

Yeah , I actually meant to lightly tack most of the parts on making the painting easier..but enjoying the work so much , most of the parts stayed put. The white areas are where I removed the fender hangers to paint them orange. The details really jump out now Thanks ! I'll take a few pics of the painted body today, I'm really happy with the results

Awesome job !!!

Excellent work ! Everything about this truck looks spot on , the colors have the proper era stripes..the list goes on and on !

Excellent build ! Looks just like your photo , and has your eye for detail

Fantastic weathering

Looks very good Good thing ya checked fitment along the way, these kits can really throw monkey wrenches into progress, and checking frequently helps ..my problem I rush in then realize a problem lol
