Really kewl looking little go cart. I built the one that came in the 60 Chevy pickup kit and like you said, it was a fun little project. Nice job.

Yeah, I'm liking this one. That's how to put Ollie's stuff to good use.

Very nice looking build. Great looking interior.

Haha...that's pretty kewl looking tom. I remember you showing me that body at the Model car show in Ownensboro. I like the foot out the back.

Pretty kewl looking 66 Chevy truck.

Thanks a bunch Carl. Thanks Mario. Yup, lot of fellows learned to drive on the farm in these old AD trucks. I kept looking at my 1:1 49 pickup here in the garage thinking, what would I want it to look like if I had it to do again.

Thanks James. Yeah, I like how the color came out.

I appreciate it man. Thanks.

That's going to look nice.

Thanks Chris.

Thanks dude.

Thanks man. Yeah, the chrome on the fenders came out better than I thought they would.

Thanks dude.

Thank you Sir. Glad you like it.

I appreciate it man. I'm happy with how it turned out.

Thanks Hector. Yeah, I think it came out pretty kewl.

Thank much Spike.

I appreciate ya checking it out Buddy. Yeah, I'm looking through my stash.

Thanks for the kind words dude. I'm a Happy Camper with the way it turned out.

Much obliged David. I found this pic online and fell in love with the color and look so I tried to mimic it. I think I came close.

Thanks man. I like using the flat military colors and shooting clear over it as it gives it more of a look how the paint was back in the day.

I'm calling this one done fellows. Under Glass: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/186248-1950-chevy-pickup/

Thanks Gary.

I got out here in the garage this morning and got this one finished. I think it came out pretty good but it is not some of my best work by a long shot. Not sure what happened but when it came time for the final assembly it seemed like things just didn't want to work my way. I had an issue with the cab and box fitting on the chassis and lining up right. This may have been due to the chassis being so warped from the get go. Since I modified the engine it didn't fit right because I had the master cylinder over a little to far and it was hitting on the fuel lines so I had to move the engine forward which involved shortening the fan blade and pulley. The added chrome on the fenders is Evergreen item No. 241 half round stock then covered with bmf. The brackets for the sun visor were parts box hood hinges that I modified since I didn't like the over-sized brackets that came in the kit. I picked up the eyelids for the headlights at a model car show. Paint is Tamiya XF-21 Sky and X-10 Gun Metal then cleared with X-22. Wheels & tires are from Jays Wheels & Tires 1948 off ebay, Dog dish hub caps were added from the kit, Swamp Cooler & drop axle & rear lowering blocks are from the Iceman. Hope you fellows like my rendition of the AMT 1950 Chevrolet pickup. Like always, all comments welcome. WIP: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/185400-1950-chevrolet-3100-pickup/
