Going leave the paint as is and the engine will be the Olds from the sedan kit since I have the headers.

Kind of bored tonight and waiting on parts for one project and need paint for others so time to do something with this 40 body I got with a bunch of 60s parts. Looks like it was intended to be a race car so that's what it will be.

Looked at the Micro Mark website and found plenty of tools to buy.

I do not know if I can get it apart without damaging anything.

I might have another cab located in the same color.

Usually the wheels I bought had holes for the axle but these wheels are not drilled,what would be the best way to find the center.

It's being made out of junk parts and made to look like someone home made a larger truck out of a pickup. It has a Y block under the hood and a 2 speed rear out of the Lindberg Dodge cabover.

It came molded in that color.

Almost done.

I told myself I was not going to get any more and this one is my fifth 60s 40 pickup but if I can get more with unused stock rims and hubcaps reasonable I will probably get more,I will be using those rims and hubcaps on the Monogram 34 Fords to build early 50s styled hotrods.

I picked it up for the unused stock rims and hubcaps for another Monogram 34 Ford project,it had a damaged cab and missing most door hinges sons 80s donor kit was needed.

I picked up this partially built 60s Monogram 40 pickup that had a damaged cab,will probably leave the cab in primer but would like to find paint to match so I can paint the rims. Yes the model came with stock rims but are using them on another project.

Monogram 34 Ford and 40 Ford pickups

I got a 80s or 90s version of the 40 pick up coming but it's going to be used for parts to finish a few projects.

I used to frequent a few others but in order to post pics one had to use a picture hosting website and that was too much of a pain for me so I just stay here.

Got outbid on the 34,the kit those rims and hubcaps are going on is a Early Iron kit.

Bidding on another 60s unbuilt Monogram 34 Ford kit again too, starting to get addicted to those 60s kits.

I think I have picked up five built and partially built 1960s Monogram 40 Ford trucks and said I was not going to do it again but I did get another partially built one that has not used stock rims and hubcaps, those rims and hubcaps are going to be used on a 70s version of the Monogram 34 Ford convertible to build a 50s style hotrod and I will do something with the partially built 40 but really got it for those rims and hubcaps. I won the auction while at the Sturgis motorcycle rally and it's waiting for me at home and will be home tomorrow.

Just needs a little finessing to make it better,remember its now a old mold so its not going to be perfect. I recently rebuilt one as a work in progress with a different colored front end so the not so good fitting was not a concern.

I would love to find a old sealed kit to build but would no way give that much money for one,I have 3 or 4 opened unbuilt kits that will get built.

The convertible will be built as a 50s hotrod.

This is the one that will become the four cylinder version,going to set it on a in used chassis I have since the front axle is broken.

Change of plans,picked up a 60s built coupe to use for the four cylinder version and the 70s convertible kit will be built as a 50s hotrod.

The more I think about it is I am only going to use the hood sides from this kit and use the rest of the parts I collected to do the build,going to use a Monogram model A engine for the four cylinder.

A few years ago I built one with a AMT kit and since wanted to build one with a Monogram,been collecting 60s and 70s Monogram parts but could not find a complete hood so I picked up a unbuilt 70s convertible kit so it will start. Going to use a coupe top on this build and then will use the rest of the parts I collected with the 70s chassis to build a hotrod convertible with no hood sides.
