  1. Thank you! There was a guy making resin square body s10 bodies. Not sure if he still is though. Used to see them listed on eBay all time couple of years ago
  2. Thank you! Really don't see a lot of under construction builds getting driven to shows these days like we used to see years ago!
  3. I haven't really thought about it honestly. but I may one day now that it's in my mind.
  4. I never even noticed the tire 🤣
  5. This is my finished but not really finished 1993 GMC. It's purposely built to look like it's in the under construction phase still just to be a different from the fully finished looked. I gave the cab a two tone paint job and matched the interior with the bottom blue to make it look like it was originally a show truck possibly a slammed sport truck from the late 90's. Now it's sitting on a full stock floor fame with 24 inch billets! Shaved doors, replaced a messed up fender and repair some dents from over the years of driving! The tubing work on this one is the most radical thing as rest of the build is pretty basic.
  6. Work and other hobbies have kind of put a damper on progress. I did finally get the motor and finished chroming the wheels though!
  7. Decided to start on the bed floor for this one this evening. I'm not entirely sure yet if I'm going to keep it open, add a big piece of glass or just make the section that came out act a cover you can remove to see the frame work.
  8. Thank you! They add a great detail to paint. These were from a big arm sleeve so slightly huge on the truck but overall didn't come out bad either I think.
  9. Adding this style 50's Apache bed trim. Couldn't find anything out there similar so had one drawn up and printed.
  10. Old build from 2018. I decided to throw two of my favorite things to see out on the road. custom semi's and racked carnival rides. The 379 was the long hauler kit with the 60" sleeper. I turned it into a day cab. Has wheels from the FLD Freightliner kit on lower profile tires to get the truck closer to the ground. It's just barely laying on the fuel tanks. For the most part the truck is pretty simple with very little aftermarket parts. The paint is Dupli color's with water transfer tattoos incorporated into the day grey. The racked Spider ride is a mix of my work and Alan's Amusement Rides from Canada. He scratch built all of the rides parts and racks. I built the control stand, box with tools and added the gates as well as built the trailer to match this particular setup. It's not the most detailed in terms of what you would see in real life but doing something along these lines was something I had been wanting to do for several years and Alan was an extremely big help in getting me up to that goal.
  11. Thank you! I've learned little breaks between them to work another one gives my mind some time to come up with more ideas and also doesn't let me get to burnt out on it when it's either an extremely slow process build or not going well.
  12. Nice build! The Camaro hood scoop was a nice touch
  13. I honestly may in the end if I can't seem to like where either idea is going. I like trying new stuff to just be a little different but sometimes those crazy ideas don't look as good as my head pictured it lol
  14. Decided to have a small portion of the 65 hood molded into the body. But want to do something different with the actual hood part. Fitting a spare 70's c10 hood I have and I'm pretty conflicted with it. It shows that there could be some potential is the look with a bit more fitting and bodywork to match the 65 a bit better but I also feel by the time that's all said and done you probably wouldn't even be able to tell it has a 70's hood incorporated into it as well.. The other one is from the 60's Apache. It doesn't look that much different aside from where the ovals are. The size is dramatically smaller which kind of gives it a cool look but at the same time I just don't know. Would it look better filling in the old ovals or leaving them and incorporating this same look into the bed later on?
  15. Wheels with three coats of Molotow liquid chrome one them.
  16. Thank you! I have quite a few more I'll post over time! Several more S10's lol
