Ok guys Project "Big Red" is done. I built a second receiver hitch for it this time it's a heavy duty 5 ton class 5 hitch, I thought that Big Red could use some more towing power. Now the modded and rechromed bumper. Now the finished build pic's, Enjoy Nick

Really no one has any tips?

Probley like a real one.

Ok here goes: 1). how do you do tires 2). how do you do wheels 3). what's the best way to do an engine Thanks guys. Nick

This took me a totla of 24 hour including the paint.

Right now I'm moding a bumper from a bronco for this truck.

Thanks.

Now a comparason: Before: After:

Now my muscle car: \Now this honey is both beauty and the beast. Feel free to comment critisise or anything guys and gals.

Now the trailer:

A couple more pic's:

Ok guys my computer was givin' me problems lately so No pictures were posted but now it's working fine so time to give some more details and pic's, Ok well I've stripped it and grafted and shortened two stepside fenders on to the fleetside bed, alot of bondo and paint and sanding and priming, and wala instant dually bed, well after some Cb parts were added to it from Torinobradley (thanks again Andrew). I was over at my local LHS and seen a set of display case trailers so I bought two of them and built one for this truck. I built it using just the base and left out the clear part. I have had a AMT 74' GTX on my shelf for a while and it looks great on top the trailer. I tore the body off the chassis to build a receiver hitch.

Hey welcome Kevin, See guys me and Kevin have been really good friends for about a year and a half, Welcome buddy, hope you enjoy the ride I know I have, there's plenty of really great guys here.

Thanks guys for steering me the right way.

Ok I was wondering because of the 40 models I have built in my 5 years that I have been building (since I was 9) around 30 Have been light duty pickups or vans and medium duty. Thanks for the heads up fellas.

When yoy say model truck are you refering to commercial trucks or medium- to light duty trucks, I'd like to know because I build light duty and medium duty trucks. Nick

I'm having problems with getting the paint off but after I do I'll start the sergary.

Ok well the road has dryed and looks pretty darn good. Here it is: Before After

In the next couple months i have 3 or 4 more trailers planed.

One more update I got a worn in dirt look on here aswell.

Ok here's my trailers All scratchbuilt #1 utility trailer with real wood floor. #2 Single axle House trailer. #3 boat and boat trailer. Nick

It's sort of a universal trailer hauler. I'll get some pictures of some of my trailers.

I added dirt to it, Keep in mind this is supposed to look like a still in the deep hills of Georgia. I still have to add tree's, dirt road, moonshine barrells and bottles.

We all make mistakes.
