Just gonna let my imagination go and see what happens.

I have been debating over my next build and decided I like the Watkins kit the best. Plan: sleeper, updated Cummins engine with intercooler, 5&4 with twin stick shifters, maybe oversized turbo, custom wheels, air ride rear suspension, rear fenders, 12 scale inch stretch, better exhaust , all subject to change. Medium dark blue with a little sparkle, TS-50 Tamiya with lotsa chrome. Mockup below

Thanks Steve, appreciate the inputs.

Thanks Chris

Thanks Brian, and thanks for sending me advice on this one.

Thanks Landon

Thanks guys, for the kind words

Agree, good spot for ideas

Doing some homework on my next build, I really like this mild custom from a company called Semi Causal

The Autocar Restorod is completed

Nice addition, helps add some realism to a cool build.

Nice progress

This will be last post in WIP for this truck. Next post for the Restorod Autocar will be under glass. Just put the last coat of chrome paint on the bumper and antennas, will attach and post, tomorrow or the next day.

Thanks Steve, a lot of ideas I stole from you😄from your builds

Thanks Jurgen, means a lot coming from a builder with your skills.

I buy from Paul all the time, great guy/business to buy from. Little curious what the tariff impacts will be.

Exciting news, I still have a few of those lots rat holed.

Well done David, looks perfect on the shelf.

Ok, I thought I was having problems on my end, not allowed to load pictures. I lost the paper clip (add picture).

I agree guys, it looks good. We are our own worse critics and we see everything that’s not perfect.

Sweet, I’ll be watching your trailer build.

Wow, that is a sharp truck, well done

Looks great, like the wood deck.

Very cool build.

This build sure tells a great story, well done.
