This is my finished AMT Chevy 3100 pickup, i wanted to build a truck that is old and rusty on one hand but still "kind of" runs and work, so no flat tires or broken glass or missing parts, just a beaten old farm truck. used several different methods to get that look, painting over rust colored primer and sanding, chipping, washes and pigments. hard to see but i also tried to create an aged look for the seat.

Thanks. That's the Revell 30 ford coupe kit, and the engine is from the kit.

Just finished this one, built OOB, very nice kit and i'm pleased with the result

Here you go, hopes this is what you needed... the wheels and tires are 3d from files created by ScalespeedGarage

So this is the old Fujimi GT40, one of my all time favorites cars. it will be painted in the 68 le mans winner livery. nothing special about the kit, very basic and simple curb side model, which i finished in few hours. next i moved to the body, which is the main focus on this car, i sanded all the mold lines, glued on the hood and filled the LH fuel cap location. next i primed it with gray Mr.surfacer, sanded smooth and shot several layers of Zero paints Gulf blue...this is where i am currently, letting the paint dry before i move on to clear and decals.

Finished the Bronco, mostly oob except for the wheels and tires

got a bit more done

little more progress, still need to glue everything in place and add the wheels, glass,roof etc..

Frame is done sans wheels

i got distracted by another project for few weeks, but now back to the bronco...started the frame and suspension assembly, since most parts were already painted its moving along quite fast.

Added the headlights, im going to call this done.

i designed and printed the headlight mounts

made some more progress, unfortunately i goofed up the windows a bit with glue but I'm to lazy to redo them. wheels are now mounted as well as the radius rods, front grill (chopped), and exhausts. also gave the engine a black wash. basically what is left now is to find a way to mount headlights and some kind of tail lights.

Added seats gas tank and shifter, trying different options for air filter\or air scoop

I've been slowly progressing with this but i'm quit pleased with the results, it's far prom prefect but im happy with it. I'm designing and testing 3d parts so sometime a part doesn't work the way i planned and i need to go back and change something ,than print and test fit again. here is where i am currently, still have many small things to do

So in the last couple of days i decided to make use of some spare parts and 3d printing, hopefully this will turn out out into something at least half decent. i had a 29 ford woody body from the AMT kit, extra frame from a revell 30 coupe kit so i'll try to build some sort of a rat rod woody. i also printed (and will print more) parts as i go on. here is where i'm at so far.... the body was chopped and i removed some of the wood framing using some part from the amt kit and some scratch building i made the floor pan and mated it to the revell frame i printed a front and rear axles, but i'm currently printing another version of the front axle, with some modifications Also printed a gas tank and a firewall, i still don't have an engine to use, will need to figure something out

i'm trying out painting the bronco with nail polish, seems to go on nicely, still need 1 or 2 more coats

Calling this one done, other than the two tiny black bits you see here which i forgot to paint.

so while finishing up the buggy (decals,lights) i gave the bronco body parts a coat of primer...still haven decided on paint.

got a bit more done

the winch and hitch are installed, the wheels are also 3d printed

some more progress, built the cockpit mocking up other parts (gas tank, engine, muffler and the front suspension) printed and painted a better winch and a more detailed hitch for the trailer

i didn't like how the paint came out (i think its caused i used black primer) so i improvised and sprayed it with orange rattle can i had at home. also a little better image of the motor, with the carb and filters attached

got some progress with the buggy, sorry about the blurry pics, my phone macro mode isn't the best painted the engine painted the wheels printed and painted the pedals and shifter painted the carburetor and air filters printed and painted a winch for the trailer painted the seat first coat of paint on the body

i just got a resin 3d printer, I selected this kit to be my first build to include 3d parts, some of them will be my own and some from different sources. so i guess this will be a long build as i will be printing parts and trial fit them. Most of the printed parts will be for the buggy, this is where i'm at currently printed some parts and started modifying the buggy for them: exhaust Engine with transaxle front suspension, pedal box Carburetor with manifold, air fllters Rear shocks, lights
