Moebius '65 Ford longbed. Back in the late 80's a friend of mine picked up a '66 Ford truck painted up like the Italian flag. I think he paid $500 for it ,likely a bit much. It did run and drive. Never did know why it was painted like this, assumed it was a sign for an Italian restaurant. I told him if this truck ever gets kitted I would build it. Here is the actual truck.Anyway, here is my rendition of it. This is my first attempt at weathering on frame and under hood. Hope my post is OK, new to this forum stuff. This is the first Moebius kit I have built. Nice kit overall, fit together good. Comments welcome.

Hello all. I'm Doug, like several of us I started building models a very long time ago. Stopped in late 70's when kits were getting near $5.00 because it was getting entirely too expensive.... Got back into it about 15 yrs. or so ago and have been at it ever since. Been checking out this forum for some time now. I am not a very fast builder, much faster at buying. Kinda new to this forum thing, Have learned a great deal here and look forward to learn more all the time.
