1950 Chevy 3100
bluestringer replied to bluestringer's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Ok, I pretty much got the stance where I want it, may need a few tweaks. Also think I will be able to use the Camaro exhaust with a few minor modifications. Not going to have much bench time the next few weeks, my wife is having knee replacement surgery on Monday and I will be caregiver for a while. -

Thanks Bob. Gonna try. Thanks. Thanks Carl. I'm going with the Camaro engine, but I stick with the stock interior. -
56 Ford Truck Pro Street

Looking good Bob. I likes them Pro Streets. -
Thank you. Thanks. It's just a piece of rubber tube I painted silver. Thanks Mario. Thank you. Thanks Carl. Thanks. Thanks. I did have some problems with those fender wells, they seemed too long and caused the radiator to be too far from the engine for the hose to fit. Had to make my own hose. Thanks Bob. Thanks you Joe. Thanks David. The air boxes did not fit very good, but I got them in, the photos are dark and really don't show they are not aligned quite correct. I had a problem on one side of the grill because the fender well seemed to long and stuck out in the way. I had to trim it back to get the grille to fit flush. Thank you. Thanks. Thank you David.

Had a few problems with it, but all in all it came out ok. Paint is Tamiya X-14 Sky Blue and Testors Gloss White Acrylic. I don't have much experience with BMF so had a few mishaps with it, but it looks ok. All stock OOB except for some plugs wires and fuel line on the engine. I did try to weather the engine a little. The missing rad hose has now been installed. All comments welcome, thanks for looking.

Calling it done. Photos under glass. Thanks to all for looking and the comments.

Thanks Joe.

Started piddling around with this today. I built one stock about a year ago, but want to go a little different with this one. Gonna try and put a 2017 Camaro engine in it, and also use the wheels and tires from the Camaro. Not sure how much modding I'll have to do, may end up putting it all back in the boxes. Haven't decided on a color yet, but thinking maybe metallic grey or gunmetal.

Got it on 4 wheels, engine installed, and got the interior done. Still working on the body. The glass does not fit well at all, trying to work it out.

Thanks. Thanks David.

A little mock up to see where she sits. I like it. Got to get the interior finished and get the glass and bits installed on the body. Hopefully that won't affect the stance.

Thanks Chaz.

Thanks David. Thank you. Thanks.

It looks great. Nice job. I'll be lucky if mine comes out that good.

Looks great. Nice color combo.

Nice. I like them.

Looking good.

Looks great. Those tires and wheels look like they came from the 66 Chevelle Pro Street kit.

I've got a couple of them, but have not tried building one yet. Back in the day I was doing lots of the old Monogram NASCAR kits.
