  2. Here it is, in all its glory, warts included. This thing fought me all the way. Hope my neighbor and his friend will like it. I'm not sure I do.
  3. Adding bling.
  4. Don't feel bad. It was up to me to stay on top of things. Good luck to the remaining contestants. Merry Christmas all.
  5. Clear added. It didn't even crack, bubble or craze. At least not yet.
  6. Cab is pretty well done and mounted on the chassis.
  7. The rocker panel trim doesn't exist in the kit. So I found a side-on view and scaled it then used the image as a pattern.
  8. Foiling is complete. Don't look too closely.
  9. Working on the foil.

  11. Beautiful build. Love the display dioramas too. Here's one in town here should you decide to do a 1:1.
  12. Then I must find a truck to put mine in. And your model is stunning my friend.
  13. While the second white turned out OK, the removal of the masking tape did not. I likely forgot to de-tack the tape before applying it.
  14. The interior is different from the 1:1 I am trying to replicate. Maybe the kit is a compromise between different models of Ford.
  15. No comment. They might get me barred, chastised and ejected.
  16. Working on the wrecker unit.
  17. Chassis is pretty well complete as is the interior.
  18. Masked the car and shot the green....outside as this is real car paint complete with isocyanates. so shop coat, gloves and respirator. Looks OK to me.
  19. Fabbed up fender skirts using the following method. Took a picture from the net, reduced it to size using Microsoft word, printed it and used it as a pattern. Used half round for the bead.
  20. Looks like it will work. I must remember to score the inside to show the shutlines.
  21. Assembled the cut down body and added the outrigger doors. Not having any slam locks anymore, or at least not finding them, I used PE seat belt clips for handles.
