    Looks like the clear cured either faster or a slower rate than the colour. If it was a chemical reaction it would be everywhere.

    Great thread, I'm loving all these cabovers. Just recently completed my first one.

    Man, that looks good. Very clean build, I really like the colours especially the matt look on the frame.

    How did I miss this thread? Yes yes yes, and yes!! Man, I been looking for one of these for a while but they either don't exist for sale or are really expensive! oh I'm super excited about this one! New tooling and improved parts from a kit that hasn't been seen in decades, more of this please! I cant wait until this is available in the UK.

    I don't know much on this subject but I know the original Dodge Tradesman became the Bad Company van with a heavily updated front end and other alterations. I'm gutted as I want to build the Magic Bus that WLS Radio used for various promotions.

    My grandfather used to do that. He was in to planes and even built them out of wood. He would glue the jigsaws when finished and frame them. A lot of the jigsaws would have a couple of pieces in the wrong place and I'd wind him up by pointing them out, it was hilarious as he was quite the character! I really miss him.

    Fantastic looking work so far.

    Yes, a pretty rare option though. I do like me some wood grain panelling but on 60's and 70's American station wagons.

    Ha, yes, I seen those Cup Noodle builds and although pretty darn cool and unusual I did think "why?" Lol. If someone thought Cup Noodle kits and trumpets will sell, which they seem to be, there's definitely hope for pretty much every kit suggested here. Fingers crossed for at least one or two in this thread!

    It's a great idea... wait, maybe not, there's so many AMT box art pictures I like I worry I'll buy as many puzzles as I have kits, probably more so! Lol

    Thanks, Seth.

    Thanks, Doug. I have heard the Revell kit has lots of flash, not something that bothers me but from some of the builds I've seen they have some really bad pin ejector marks on the frame that interfere with the cross beams. Thanks, Angel. I cut it at the cross beam, the one in-between the fuel tanks and mud guards. My WIP thread will show how it was done.

    This will be a great build. The trailer will have an actual real load, have you weighed it?
  14. doorsovdoon
    Strip it and do it again while the paint is still relatively fresh. I hate when paint go's wrong but oddly enough the second attempt usually always ends up looking better.
  15. doorsovdoon
    Nice. Looking forward to the updates on this.
  16. doorsovdoon
    Very nice pair of Fords. Will have to pick one of these up!

    I love the underside detail, and the engine bay is superbly done, very nice. Interior looks very clean too. Nice!
  18. doorsovdoon
    wow, that looks crazy good! Amazing detail on these 1/16 kits, and a very clean job too. Paint is flawless, and with that red interior, mmm, love it!

    I've built the early release. Apart from the very curved windscreen panel it was a great kit. I didn't even know about it until someone mentioned it. One other issue with the early kit is the front grill, the trim just bellow the hood where the turn signals are is just a plain blank piece of chrome, you can see it in the pic bellow. I thought there was a piece missing but no, that's how it was moulded! lol
  20. doorsovdoon
    Yep, I definitely caught the big rig bug, I can't get enough of them but nowhere to put them! I gave this one to my dad, the KW I just built has nowhere to go, I have two more cabovers to build and I'm still browsing the internet for future builds! Lol
  21. doorsovdoon
    Thanks, Tom. That'll be the perished cap seals, I've told him to get them sorted! Lol
  22. doorsovdoon
    Stunning build. Looks like its working hard in the salt quarry, love it!
  23. doorsovdoon
    Still looks good, I like the interior and engine bay detail.
  24. doorsovdoon
    Cheers, guys. This was a great kit, very good quality and fun to build. I'll be doing the Kenworth version of this kit for sure.
  25. doorsovdoon
    I like the missing section of the rear spoiler, the rest isn't far behind looking at that rust along the trunk! Great looking beater.
