Wow those wheels and tires look good! First upgrade to any kit should be better wheels and tires, theres no many available options now days !

Thanks ! I havent watched any build videos of Dave's Getting the interior details painted up, and the dash gages ( decal ) in place and I should have it finished . Decided since it's a fresh air car , the occupants should have at least minimal safety belts. Would white lap belts be appropriate?

Very nice project

First time doing bmf, turned out pretty good! Just a few chrome moldings to break up the pink Once I get the dash details and door panels , this will be finished thanks for looking !

Awesome variety of parts to make a much more detailed truck

Man those old school steel wheels make a statement, whose tires are those

Outstanding work

This is gonna be an epic build

Outstanding work ! The roof conversion looks fantastic

I'm totally blown away by the amount of fabrication you've stuffed into this ! Every little nut bolt and assembly is present , and cool use of the bendy straws

Fantastic color combo

Started assembly on the frame and floor pan and fitting the aluminized exhaust system. I was very impressed how everything fit together, even the exhaust pipes clicked right into their slots . That small area of bare plastic will be touched up before the suspension goes in Yeah..sorry about leaving the manufacturer info on the tray..

Impressive build , really like how clean the opened doors look considering how much work it was thinning the resin . The shot of the cab corner w door open really shows how much material you had to deal with

Thanks , I used a toothpick to sharpen the outlines and clean out the panels

Very nice!! Love the interior treatment

Thanks ! Yeah I need to clean up the separation lines once they dry more . The tamiya paints dry quicker , and using few drops of thinner kept the paint flowing..sometimes with a mind of it's own lol

Heres where I hit the wall..not building many cars, I dont have the eye for colors that work w each other...a quick text to my buddy Tbill, and i had a few ideas. Originally a tan accent was planned, but screwing around with a mix of red and white ...i had this salmon color hmm ....Tbill liked it and our daughter gave me the thumbs up so I was off and painting. Now the big test..what's it gonna look like in the car..and the engine together That's it for now ! Any comments or suggestions welcome ! Jeff

I picked up this kit awhile ago waiting for inspiration to strike , and I finally got around to building it. Wandering thru the lhs w our 4 yr old daughter, she started playing w paint cans..noticing they were shades of pink....I'm building it for her ! The builds gonna be straight oob, just a fun build while I wait for parts to arrive for the oshkosh plow. She kept picking up a certain can..it matched her coat...and we decided that was perfect. Testors electric pink lacquer w wet look clear ! A quick cleanup of the fine molding lines, and bath in dish soap..and it headed to the booth! 3 light coats later it was laying down perfect and even..the rounded body lines on this model really showed off the raspberry colors and flake in the paint. I let it rest a few minutes before getting cleared ..then took outside for a look in natural light I planned a light interior, settling on tamiya white primer, that seems to dry w a nice sheen. I stuck the primed tub in the drying body to check contrast.. More to come!

Love it

Nice and flat Theres been a few builds where I've used a small line level to assure frames are correct , doesnt hurt to check..now the wheels will sit on ground !

Truly fantastic news that Ryan was able to walk out of the hospital under his own power 2 days after his crash. The photo of him smiling at the hospital w his 2 daughters before being released really are emotional

Sweet work

Very nice work !!! Those cabovers certainly look busy when ya start adding all the parts !
