Brizio

The chassis is pretty much completed. I did a light wash too. Gas tank painted and washed Chassis all completed with part of the interior Testing the exhaust options. Stock on the top, shorted on the bottom The body is ok, the big issue is the rear fender, the wheel opening on the top part is almost flat. When in the real car is round. Sorry for the blurry photo Corrected the wheel opening on the fender

Great news!

No, at least I don't use any special step. Usual stuff, primer and paint. I second that! It would be nice if somebody make them in photo etch. They sold a kit with engine, if I remember correctly. I was thinking to order other tires, and look into it more. but a the end I went with out of the box. If I wait for parts I'm afraid I'm going to put it on stand by. No regular primer. Never had any issue with it. Even when I built the Daytona Coupe, few years ago.

More progress... Speaking of rims... Here all the part for make one rims. The dome shape part on the bottom left, will help to bend the spokes. Here the wheels done. I wish the tires had more details and a corrected shape. But over all they looks great!

The kit has two sheets of photo-etched parts. First thing to build is the chassis. It could be little difficult because the metla part some time are not straigh. Before paint the chassis and the body, I moke them up to check that the fenders are centered with the center of the axles. Chassis painter and light weathered. Also added the "motor".

I had this kit for few years and now I decided to do something with it. It is a Ferrari 250 GTO on 1/24 scale, and the kit is Gunze Sangyo from 1985! Inside the box The metal parts

Thank you PappyD340 I think to make some Billy cans. But in the cab, no bed like the kit offer. Or some Pabst... Sorry to heard that... But my mom did the same, she tossed few cars I was working on...

Thanks iamsuperdan! I think I'm going to leave the bed empty, and put some Billy cans inside the cab!

Primer time! Painted cab, hood and bed.

Thank you!

Rolling chasis...

I hope one day you can fix your. I have the Revell Chevy Street Pickup, in the Hot Rod series that is pretti much the same truck.

Painted the letters on the "new" tires.

I noticed the front axle, for a little bit I thoug to add a differential and make a 4x4, but after I decided to leave it 4x2. I think to build it out of the box. With some minor mods.

I don't like the tires in the kit, I think they are too much wider, and also the rubber is very ard, they feel like soft plastic. The tires in the kit are Goodyear Wrangler R/T, and I will replace them with some Goodyear Tracker A/T. The Tracker are the two on the right in the picture.

First thing first, I modify the front axle, so the wheels will be able to trun. Here the chassis with suspension and brake line.

I had this kit for a while and last week I start to build this truck. Here a few picture of the box art, and all the parts.

Very nice display! Unfortunately is not sealed, so you need to clen your models after a while.

I will have to check them!

This is a model I built in 2009. A 1952 Jeep CJ-2A Zamboni Model C #10 in 1/25 Scale

Two build I really enjoy. The EL Hursto, out of a Cutlass Revell kit in 1/25. Here the full build: EL Hursto And the Ferrari Unicorno, also from a Revell kit. Here the full build: Ferrari Unicorno

But for 79 Cents, you cannot complain... LOL!

Mine are in a display case

Welcome!

Not surprised to see prices like this. My Janis Joplin Porsche sold for little over $20K few years ago. Not on ebay, I don't build models for sell them, except some commission.
