And.... He painted in the Box Art Colours....He is back sliding again. Drat I prefer when he paints them some other colour. If I wanted to see it in the Box Art Colours, I'd just look at the boxtop...

Thanks! You are most Welcome.

Not Quite as weathered as the one on the sunken USS Hornet carrier. (and It is an International Harvester) P.S. The Tires are Flat.

Thanks, John.

Great Job! Colour is perfect.

That paint finish, makes it looks like a Barn Find. Some 1970's Street Rod, dragged out a storage unit or garage, unseen since the 1980's. I love it!

I really like the weathering. Looks like Tunisia.

What is the significance of the Yellow Arrows? What exactly is this photo showing?

Indeed! Where did you find it?

Yes, exactly what he is saying.

Thanks, Tim. I'm glad they were Okay. I'll think about getting one now.

That is just awful. I am sorry to hear this. Get better!

This! Give us one tinted & one clear.

I never bought Truckin', but you most certainly are correct.

Adam Rehorn, (aka Faust) is a member here. You may know him for his interest in so-called "Loser Cars". He is a huge Gundam Fan. https://adamrehorn.wordpress.com/model-kits/mecha-robots/ Here is his most recent finished project. Anyway, I was giving him a shout-out, as I am not sure he has seen this project. Sorry for the confusion.

Adam Rehorn (aka Faust) to the white courtesy phone please! Stellar Job on this Kit.

It is on Pre-Order now. HPI Guy has the kit in his hands now, and will likely do a build sometime soon.

Box Art shows two sets of wheels. Not sure if there is a stock suspension, but certainly Stock and Custom wheels. HPI Guy's name is on one set of Lic Plates too. Model Roundup has some great Box Art and Decal Pics.

And Spotlight Hobbies has this kit available right now. Curious to see what wheels are in it.

Outstanding Job! Looks like a real car.

Wow, Tim! What a great Time Capsule of a Build. Remember an article in SAE many years ago that showed one or two other builds of the '55 Panel turned into pickups. One was Metallic Brown, IIRC. I always wanted to get the '55 Panel and do what you did here. Thanks, for sharing.

Nope, the 4x4 Engine Cross Member and an extra Drive Shaft too.

Wow! Clean Modern Paint and Building Techniques can make even an old kit pop, in the hands of a skilled Artisan! You , Sir, knocked that out of the park!

What Jet are you planning on, Tony?

Well we got the restored Longbed Dodge P/U a couple years ago, and they are still o the Shelves at HL, but I would like to see more variants off that same tooling. Your Suggestion is one of the better versions. There are still a lot of the 4x4 parts even now in the kit that is out now.
