  1. Dan, The snug top style shell comes with the green longbed kit and the flat tonneau cover is from the dually kit. I just swapped because they looked better that way. http:// this is the kit you would look for, curiously, there is no mention of the shell on the box. http://
  2. Nice! I always loved ths "art deco" look of these but it looks like a close-coupled nightmare to fly
  3. Which do you prefer - Flareside... http:// http:// ...or Styleside? http:// http:// http://
  4. Curbside promo style stocker... ..or Phantom Dually Custom?
  5. You just can't build this thing clean! Resin cast extra ripper teeth just because it looks like this beast could pull 'em!
  6. Thanks all for the compliments! I enjoyed building this. Biggest challenge was that the Corvette suspension was so much wider than the Cameo chassis. In hindsight it may have been easier to whip up a new chassis.
  7. Looking god, I love the weathered paint!
  8. Thanks for the compliments. With all of the talent on this forum it means a lot! BTW "Fido" was reassigned from his former duties on the Budweiser beer wagon model? Long time lurker, just shared my first posts this week but will be posting more and enjoying the ideas shared by others.
  9. Thanks, it's easy to think of this generation Caprice as plastic blobs but there is actually quite a bit of bright work. Over the years, "research" on these was expensive. Luckily, helpful troopers will meet you on the roadside and even throw in a discussion of the posted speed limits in their respective states! ?
  10. Nice job! I built one of these "back in the day" and I seem to remember the decals were really stiff, Looks like you beat them into submission quite well!
  11. Thanks Driptroit! The beds are from the Revell wrecker kits with the goofy cab that is supposed to look like a big rig. It is an easy conversion with resin wheels like the '72 or Revel Ford Dually wheels as on the '90
  12. Resto mod Cameo with ZR-1 Corvette drivetrain and interior. Coral pink with dark metallic gray rattle can finish. Added side trim from '55 car MIni tubs to accomodate rear wheel/tire combo
  13. Made from the car hauler and ALF pumper kits:
  14. Nice Job! a very clean build,
  15. Older projects shared here for the first time: 1972 GMC converted from the stepside kit with resin tires and wheels. Both feature appropriate year big blocks for power, the newer model is converted from the SS454 kit, parts box details to make a matched pair of work trucks,
  16. Finished these years ago, just pulled them out for photos to post: Antennas are made from fine wire with styrene bases, Gumball light on MSP unit is made from a paint marker cap painted with Stoplight Red,
  17. Perhaps this would work: http://www.rmrmodels.com/100_3096.JPG
  18. it looks like the hooks may be there to hold tire chains? Looks about the right length to hold the chains unrolled to their full lenth and hung horizontally.
