Just started this one since it's been sitting around awhile and I wanted a quick build. All box stock. chassis painted, needs some more weathering and detailing. grill and bumper detailed black washed wheels I left the interior in the molded gray and black washed it, I will dull coat it here soon. and some color on the cab/bed. Still needs clear. I'm not sure once the truck is painted should I use this tailgate sticker or not? I like a clean look but I kinda think the sticker will set the blue off, we'll see.

Hey thanks everyone. It's was my first time actually weathering something like this and it was fun. It did help though there was a very similar truck at my work with the same plow setup and rust holes haha.

Thanks everyone, I got the off white base coat on the shell, the doors/hood need some more work and then there next.

I finished this one a couple of days ago. Pretty much box stock except for the added rust holes, roof light, stock air cleaner, and modified CB antenna. I also added some chain on the front of the plow. The missing turn single didn't come out as well as I wanted but overall it was a Pretty good build and I can't wait to build another as a nice truck. I also should have weathered the chain also but it was already glued on.

Plus the truck pictured on the box is a 4x4 long bed, which is a pretty rare combo.

Thanks guys! I got this one done so I hope to have some finished pics posted soon.

thanks man.

Well I started to play around with the front end tonight after work. Looks like I got a solid plan on how I will do the front end. Still needs alot of work but I put some tape on the bumper and where the headlights will be once finished to give me an idea how everything will look in scale. The updates from now on will slow down but I had alot of free time this weekend and knocked out a bunch of work on this thing.

Thanks guys. I'm building this as the way I want to finish the truck. The front end in the 94 isn't even close, I want this build to be as accurate as possible so I will scratch build everything that I need. The front actually shouldn't be too hard once I started thinking about it.

Then I did some work to the ext cab window openings and took some more mock up pics since I was board. I also got corvette brakes all the way around since that is something I also want to do to the truck eventually.

Hmmm I might have to look at the amt 04 I got laying around. Anyways we got hit hard today so I didn't have to work. So off to the model room I went! Found some seats that are similar to the '98 jimmy buckets I put in the 1:1. I will fill and re scribe the correct pattern. I took this pic during the swap, old seat on the left. more pics of the interior so far: Then I worked on the suspension, had to modify the front end so the wheels would tuck properly. I also lengthened the exhaust and removed the rear bump stops since I cut them off the 1:1 already.

Well this is a just a quick build. Box stock except for the weathering and the chain on the plow. I'm building this one as a Canadian beater lol.

Well I got some work done on this one. I got the cabs glued together, interior tub lengthened, and chassis stretched. Now I have to attach the roofs together and start shaving the extra door handles and body lines. I am going to shave the tail gate also because that is something I want to do with the 1:1. I am also going to work on the rear ext cab windows because the opening needs alot of work to appear correct. Now I need to find a set of mirrors like this in scale, I recently put them on. Now the model:

Thanks guys, it's the revell of Germany kit. So far it's going together pretty good. The doors take a bit of work to align properly but I think I got them adjusted correctly.

Well I started this a little bit ago but never posted it. This is my first big scale kit ever and so far I'm liking it. I couldn't leave it stock so I found some tires, modified the suspension and this is where it sits now. The rear wheels I increased the diameter because they were too small for the lips. They need a little more work but they fit alot better. and what I'm thinking for colors. Off white for the wheels and sides of the car, and rootbeer for the rest of the body.

Thanks guys. I had alot of problems with both the front and rear suspension, I agree the front sits way too high but it was a pain just to get it together so once it was on four wheels I wasn't touching it lol. Glad I didn't offend you steve

Still working on this one very slowly. The cab still needs some more work but it's getting there. Haven't done much to the bed either. I did start on adding the ssr interior to the truck and did some engine bay work.

I just finished this one, it's the original issue. It's box stock except for the wheels and tires. I really didn't like the kit at all because I had alot of fit problems and that rear suspension decided to fight me alot. It's missing some things but I really just wanted it done. The car did turn out better then I expected. It is still just a mustang. (I'm a Gm/camaro guy).

Thanks guys! Yes it is a bravada bumper, which is extremely rare here in Canada because they never sold bravada's here so I was very surprised to find one in the junkyard. My truck was a bare bones truck, but I added the power/heated leather seats(though the heat don't work), has no ac, no power locks/windows, really it's a base model truck with the sls package. But I love it because the color is pretty rare and I keep doing more things to it to improve it all the time.

Thanks guys. I am Really excited to get going on this one, been a long time waiting!

I just started this and it's going to be a LONG project. I'm building my 99 Sonoma in scale. There is alot involved to make amt's 2nd generation s10/sonoma kits into a 98+. I'm going to scratch build the whole front end, and highly modify a 99 silverado dash/door panels and much more to look like my truck. Since my truck is an extended cab I also had to use two cabs. I might make the doors function, but we'll see when I get there. I am going to build the model with a few things done to it that I haven't done with the 1:1 yet(new mirrors, lowered suspension). My 1:1: Model: The rear bumper still needs ALOT of work also. Dash so far: I'm going to take my time on this and make it as close to my truck as possible. Not sure how I'm going to do the front end yet but we shall see as I move along.

Thanks guys. So I have been working on the roof and frenching the headlights into the fenders. I also added the ssr tailights and I am going to add the door handles too. It still needs alot more work especially on the roof.

So lately I have been away from the bench. So I started to dig through some old stuff I started and dug up this amt 50 Chevy pickup I cut the top off of and chopped the windshield. I found the top and it will be chopped and reattached. By the end of the day and one SSR kit later I have this: now the fun part: color: So I am going to build the truck with the ssr chassis and drivetrain. It fit SO well all I did was cut out the rear fenderwells of the ssr chassis and removed the inner fenders from the ssr interior tub. I'm going to update the truck but it will still look like a 50 pickup.

Thanks. Yep I bought some ridler 695's in June, same style as the bosses, just a bit different. Yours will look awesome Stock floored.

What can I say I'm addicted lol. Keep adding more to mine every time I look at it,
