I may go that route Brian. pictured is one I did similar done that way.

I like it to Gary. I have a neat dark green that I could use. pictured is a car from a few years ago with the color on it.

thanks Jeff, I like the same truck. something similar is planned.

just type, worlds biggest ghetto on you tube. the good old motor city!

mighty fine work!

thanks everyone for the input. build is still stalled waiting on decals. found some pictures on the web what the plans for this build are. going to pick up a 123 kit for the engine and trans. I was always a fan of the international transport trucks, mine will be dark green and yellow when painted. the mail tracker is still showing in transit, pathetic. I live in ohio and the decals are coming from indiana. about a 7 hr. drive including stops for meals and potty. keep in mind they were ordered the end of november. starting to think someone needed them real bad.

I took a quick peek at the chassis and it looks like I'll be cutting the frame rails and shortening the wheelbase by at least an inch. those are the plans anyway, to get the look I'm after. the decals I ordered were supposed to be delivered the 4th, now here it is a week later and the tracker shows they're still in transit. don't know what is up with the USPS. I'd like to get the cab painted before it turns real cold.

thanks everyone for the kind words.

nice clean work!

looking good!

nice work!

nice job!

usps, waiting 8 days so far for decals to come from 1 state away......... mail says in transit since Dec. 4th.

bought new 25-30 years ago. the only die cast I own. made by ertl, same as new condition. interior dusty needs q tip or brush dusted. 1/12 scale.
