  1. looks like you have built another truck i see all the time. Great job of capturing that real life lived in look I see all the time on the roads in Kentucky! Great Job Al, keep building! ?
  2. I built this truck last April as a gift to a good friend of mine. Its a replica build of his actual truck. I used the Moebius kit, '61 resin grill by f/x resin, custom bed tubs, fuel cell, spider web gussets, hand crank, mustang rally pack, steering column, dash vents all 3d printed. wired engine, throttle linkage, battery, custom built sun visor, gearshift..all the custom decals. I will include some pictures of the 1:1 truck.
  3. so true on battery. I have done the bungee cord on the battery before. I never thought of it on this build. thanks for all the comments.
  4. Thanks everyone I appreciate all the comments. The seat was done using a image I found on google. I reduced it to scale and printed it out on a color printer, it was then cut to fit and white glued onto the kit seat.
  5. Finished this one in December 2020. I used the Fireball Modelworks F250 conversion parts. I also used Fireball Wheels and Tires and cab lights. Weathered the body using the salt technique and frame and undercarriage with various pigments and washes. Saddle Rug front seat cover, Yosemite Sam floor mats, and a bandana from the rearview mirror. I added plug wires and a fuel line and filter. I named this one the Holler Matriarch, because when nobody else can get out of the holler she can get you to town to get the Bread and Milk!
