  1. All that detail and no tilt steering column? I'm disappointed. ? Seriously, that is a stunning build!
  2. Outstanding paint job! Looks like a real truck!
  3. Not sure where you found the decal, but that matches a local tow service near me: https://www.santafetowservice.com/
  4. Great build and I am so glad your dad got to see it completed! On a side note, I am not sure how those guys shifted gears in those trucks with the giant balls they must have had to drive them! Holy smokes!!
  5. I heard these Colts were absolute terrors to drive. Very unpredictable, but what would you expect with that short of a wheelbase and stupid amounts of power? Great topic, I look forward to seeing the finished result!
  6. Beautiful job so far, can't wait to see it completed!
  7. I built this same model for my Mom (her and Dad had one in the 60's) and had the exact same problems you described. You did a nice job!
  8. Sure do! I bought this car back in 2003 and have spent quite a bit of time and money bringing it back to life. I normally am a purist when it comes to engines, but I am really tempted to sell the factory 400 (rebuilt) and put in a nice fuel injected LS motor out of a late model GM truck.
  9. I own a restored 1974 Grand Am, are you selling these kits? I would love to build a curbside model of my beast!
  10. Incredible! You have WAY more skill and patience than I could ever hope for!
  11. WOW....what an awesome build! Can't wait to see what this will look like when it is completed!!!
  12. ..... why are you posting pictures of a 1:1 engine? Unbelievable, I have never seen such detail.
  13. I actually thought that the first pics were 1:1. Outstanding build!
  14. Nice job! I had the pumper truck years ago and just did not have the patience to finish it, can't imagine how much longer this beast took to build!
  15. Great reply! Nice build by the way, I love those old Chevy pickups.
  16. Wow, what an awesome job! I am a huge fan of the Vegas, but holy hell are they expensive!
  17. LOVE that color! As a side note, am the only one who sometimes mis-reads "Prostar" as "Pornstar"
