  1. that's exactly what I did was lengthen and reshape the rear fenders, then I did the back window, then the inner bed.
  2. thanks Dave. you've been super helpful
  3. Hows about GMC coverstions for all the Chevy truck kits?
  4. I used a mixture of this and Cranky's Mr. Penguin to do my truck, and it turned out great. thanks fella's
  5. Dave that reminds me of something stupid my uncle Jeff did on his farm, he came out to see a bear had killed his dog so ran back in and grabed his 12 gage cam out and fired a few times at the bear who was next to his truck, needless to say his truck ain't any prettyier a new side window back window and a mirror later.
  6. Thanks Dave, before I start painting can someone verify Dave's words, I just don't want to screw it up
  7. thanks Cranky, you inspired me to do my own junker/beater/farm truck, I'm using a ford though, one question, how do you get the salt off after you apply it and do you apply the salt to the wet paint or dry
  8. ok I'm a GM and Dodge fella so I'm building my 2000 issue AMT '53 Ford F100 the one with the light blue truck on the box and I have some questions, 1.) how do you paint the dash and interior? Like is thhere body color stuff or? 2.) what color is a '53 Flathead? 3.) does anyone have a good underhood picture of a stock '53 ford with the flathead?
  9. I might get one of them grilles to do a replica of my truck.
  10. Chuck man that is just plain cool, and something that can be done with a truck that I ain't done yet, thanks for the I dea, What color is that it's nice looking.
  11. Uh George and Andrew I wasn't asking weather there were changes, and thank you Jerry for explaining that to them I was asking weather or not anyone has built a Model of the one year wonder.
  12. for the gone in sixty seconds fan that wants economy, is it me or everytime you see a smart car you just want them to quit being stupid with bondo, fiber glass and time.
  13. I'm almost done mine, I'm building it as a replica of the one my Cousin Ted owned from the late 70's to late 80's, it was one of 350 Black Fairlane/ Ranchero GT's built in '67 and sold in Canada, he had a Raven Black '67 rancher with 390 and 4spd, he later bought a Hurst shifter, and installed it, Ted also ditched the Factory style Wheels for Crager SS wheels all around 40's in the front 60's in the rear, Bilstein Shocks, and Posi, Ted owned many other cool cars over the years too, including a '76 Firebird Formula and a '68 Plymouth Belvedere with a 440 and a 4spd, but the Ranchero was his favorite, he drove it until Rust finally left almost nothing, even though it was well taken care of all the travelling with his band got to the little Ford. So I ask Has anyone else ever turned the Amt/Ertl '66 Fairlane's to build a Ranchero?
  14. Dave between you and Davezinn I've got my question answered and then some, thank you guys, here's the real truck

  16. yeah I Did It's super easy wih those type of tires they have a little ressesed circle, so you can just put the paint in them and wipe off the excess. All the body work basicall blew apart.
  17. Bill looks like you guys got lots of global warming to shovel.
  18. What plumbing indoors, I think I got somrthin' backward then.
