1948 Ford PU

It turned out beautiful Pat! Nice work.👍 -
What was your first truck model?
NOBLNG replied to Mike77's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I don’t recall what kit it was, but it was a Peterbilt. I watched the tv show “Movin On”, so that would make me 13 or 14 years old at the time. I haven’t built one since but I do have an AMT Peterbilt Wrecker and a Monogram 1926 Mack log hauler waiting on the shelf. -

Beautiful work detailing those rims and tires!😎

Your Phaeton is coming along nicely.I like the steering box you made.👍 I didn’t bother with one since very little is visible inside this one.

Beautiful work as always!👍 I too am always impressed with the whole lighting aspect of your builds.

Looking real nice Joe!👍😎

Nice work so far Fabrizio!👍 You can’t go wrong with black and red.😎

Thanks for the compliments fellas!🙂 The kit has some very nice steering components, but they won’t work with my modifications. Plus, they are meant to be glued in place I think, and I want pose-able steering. So I made a new steering arm from evergreen and a new tie rod and drag link from .047” brass rod.

Well that turned out to be a half-baked plan.🙄 I couldn’t get seats to fit up into place with those floor pan sections attached to the body. So I re-attached the lower sections to the frame. The rearward part will still work as is. I have been working on mounting the dash and a few blocks of evergreen glued to the dash and firewall give it a positive mounting location. I scratch built a tilt steering column and mounted it to the dash. Also made patterns for the windows. That’s all for now.🙂

The V8 hubcaps are in the Revell/Monogram ‘37 ford pickup kit, but the wheels are artillery…not wire.

I also found this, but didn’t buy it. I don’t know if it’s complete or not…I imagine it would be for that price.😬

Requirements from me decreased substantially when I retired.

Picked this up today for $10 at the local flea market. It’s complete except for the wheels and tires. I don’t need the wheels and tires anyways, since I bought it specifically for doing a build inspired by this picture.

The only use I can see is changing lanes when the jerk in front of you puts his left turn signal on just as the light turns green.🤬

I don’t, but a link to the eBay site may help someone else identify them?
