  1. Thank You. Here he is sitting on all 4. I'm digging the stance. These are the wheels.
  2. I'm building a '72 Chevelle tribute to the one I had back in the '80s. Being young and dumb, I wrapped it around a pole in '88. I've got the correct color from MCW. There were a few places that needed attention, so I have more paint coming to correct those.
  3. I'm not putting bumpers on this truck. I found a rolled valance leftover from a '64 Olds 442 kit. I think it will look good with the front valance.
  4. I used some sprue goo to fill in some low spots. I'd like to do all of the filling and sanding prior to priming. One thing that helped me I think is the fact the bed is attached to the cab.
  5. I cut 5/8" out of the bed to fit the chassis. The razor saw came in handy for that. This is by far the most customized building I've done. I'll gladly accept tips/critiques along the way.
  6. I bought one of the AMT Coke '72 Chevrolet C 10s off Ebay. It was missing the engine and wheels, so it made a good candidate for a custom build. A friend gave me a '91 Lumina NASCAR kit, so I thought the chassis would be cool under the truck. I started cutting the engine compartment out, got down to the last 1/8" and the body broke sending my knife into my left index finger. Thus the name STITCHES.
  7. This is one of my truck wips. Thought I'd try something different. Topher
