  1. Hi, thank you, I actually came across Tow 411 around 2 months ago, it was very handy! thank you for the other link, I never found that one before. Nick
  2. Thanks Mike, I'll be sure to check for mold lines better in the future, and I'm still getting the hang of BMF. Nick
  3. This was the last reissue of the Long bed kit, in somewhat of a stock version, without it being overly modified, to build it stock, you will need either an annual kit, or a Li'l Red Truck kit and if you use the Li'l Red Truck as a donor you will need the 2WD annual kit rear leaf springs for a stock ride height.

  4. Thanks Mike and Darrin. Nick
  5. Thank you, I will.
  6. Thanks I could go for another (speaking of Hemi....................)

  8. Thank you, yes that's very true, I ended up seeing a orange Datsun 240Z, and it was not pretty, by any stretch of the imagination. Nick
  9. I made that, pretty simple, drew up a label in MS paint then printed that and used seatbelt material for the belt. Nick

  14. Neraly Finished interior Finished interior Nick
  15. Drilled out Dash Weathered Bucket seat. Random Crapola Painted cinder blocks
  16. Well I Guess after the color choice of interior, just call it Frankenstein Last night I started by priming the interior, then scratchbuilding a bare door, and priming it, then painting the whole mess Mint Green like the steel wheel previously shown, then went to taping and spraying black on the hounds tooth parts. Added a 70's era steering wheel, dug up some random parts and weathered them, and found some transmission linkage and a nice 70's era shifter. added aluminum BMF to the floor to represent sound proofing. Transmission cut off door panel inner blank door
  17. Thanks Guys, I got it touched up today and will get the red stripe taped off and maybe sprayed. Nick
  18. Spent the afternoon working on interior. Because I'm going with a mid 70's Resto/mod, I deceided scratchbuild a roll bar. Found a '68 Chevelle Bucket seat. Removed the handles, and most of the interior hardware. Went ahead and cut a Floor shifter hole. Removed those odd round forms in the rear corners. Found a custom style steering wheel and a steering column. Not pictured is the dash, which I removed the glove box door from, the knobs, and the guages from, leaving holes of course. Nick I'm open to suggestions, and idea's.
  19. Nearly done paint, Soon as I get my hood From Nick, it'll be primed and painted to match. Truck still needs it's red stripe and some touch up.
  20. The tires my first flat tire A nasty Tranny (Pun intended) Nick
  21. Well I had this idea kicking around a while. Basically it's going to be a '57 Chevy Bel Air 2 door hardtop that was in mid-restoration when it was just left, most likely in the mid 70's, and has just sat half started for 30+ years. The base will most likely be a old cracked driveway, as suggested by Cranky. anyway; The car, as given to me by a member here long ago. This is how nasty the interior was Cinder Blocks as suggested by Cranky The Paint actually Has Texture!
  22. Well Got one coat of black on her. Nick
  23. I've used both of BMF's Inkjet and Laser, aswell as both their white and clear backed, very good product. Nick
