Well I’ve finished another one of my favorite 1/32 scale trucks the Chevy Bison.This was another extra old Monogram kit I used and put the New Revell Decals on but I didn’t have any extra side emblems for it. It would have been nice if Revell added a extra pair or two of them on the decal sheet like AMT. While building this truck I always thought it would be that kinda truck to run in the Blue Ridge and Appalachian Mountains pulling a dry van for some reason. I chose 1980 for the year on this one because that was the last year Chevrolet was in the Class 8 truck market and I seen a brochure of a 1980 Bison on the front that was my inspiration. This was strictly Out of the box. I usual don’t like using the dash decals but on this one I decided too and I liked them. Enjoy the pics.

The Same but a “little “ different….
Pete68 replied to Biggu's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Beautiful finish and well worth the effort. The front Mudflaps set this rig off along with the close attention to all the small details most people over look when weathering. Be proud Of this Gem. Now take a day or so break and build another Masterpiece 😂. -

Thanks for the complement Jim. Is your Bison 1/32 or 1/25 scale? Get it out and start on it I’d like to see what you will do to it. -

Thanks I appreciate it and you stopping by. I’ve been wanting to build this one in this paint scheme for years and finally Revell came out with the decals to do it. I enjoy taking pics outside just makes the Model look so different. -

Well I’ll take most of the blame I’m flipping back and forth between GMC and Chevys at the moment so it’s very understandable 😂. I’m just glad you stopped by. -

1980 Chevy Titan "SS"
Pete68 replied to BigBad's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Nice looking SS their my favorites of the Titans and Astros. It’s sad that 1980 was the last year Chevrolet was in the class 8 truck market end of a great era.
