I totally saw the same thing, although the cab looked a bit different.
-
I suspect this HRM article from December 1961 inspired more than one hot rod truck scale model...
-
The January 1949 HRM cover had this one. Inside an article with cutaway drawing and everything needed to scratch build this beauty...
-
I suspect they are using a Snipping Tool
-
I would guess they were going for a bit of the Ford GT prototype look, since these were so famous at the time...
-
Under the heading of "Photos that inspire me to build" is this beauty from April 1948 of HRM: If anyone else runs across a great photo/article/advertisement, I hope you'll post it here. Just make sure to note the issue of HRM so the rest of us can check it out too!

I'm with you Ricky.

My pleasure John. So far I'm on a binge myself - - - 16 hours over the last two days!
-
So cool! I'm still in the 50's right now, and there are articles here and there regarding model builds...
-
The only problem Bill; the more I read these old articles, the more ideas I get for new builds!
-
I think this is a link our entire readership would enjoy, but I'm not sure how to get the word out so everyone sees it...
-
Isn't the site awesome? I'm totally into the 50's issues as I'm learning about the salt flats racers.
-
Not that I'm able to tell, but I'll keep an eye out for you as I'm going through the entire collection.

I got this link at this year's SEMA - Motor Trend booth. It truly is free and you don't have to provide any personal information. I LOVE all the photos and articles from the golden age of hot rodding! https://www.motortrend.com/hotrod-archive/ Update 1/10/23: I'm not sure if others are having technical difficulties, but just recently my initial link to the HRM magazines starting acting up. I have been accessing it by going to the main Motor Trend page and clicking on "Magazines".

Well, your experimental color looks great!
-
Nice looking in the photos. It seems to have flecks of different colors. Does it flop depending on the direction you look at it?
-
Alex, if that's the direction you're thinking, there was a gorgeous car at SEMA this year with a paint job that faded from black on top to cranberry on the bottom. It was subtle and beautiful!
-
Sorry, but there was never a more beautiful color for 60's cars than GM Tahitian Turquoise with white vinyl interior, but hey that's just my two cents worth
-
Looking forward to watching this one!

Update: '33 Ford Coupe 4-wheel independent suspension
