Nice color choice!

Getting closer ....

I'm glad this popped up - beautiful build!

I think I got the bow worked out. With this particular kit (again, an older issue), the rear wall of the cab was cracked. The bed sides have little channels that line up with slots between the back of the cab and the rear wall of the cab. With the rear wall significantly cracked, this was pulling the bed downward. I glued the damaged rear wall back together, shimmed with some strip plastic, and here's where we are. Still needs wheels attached, some details remain.

I think it looks great - the flipped bumper and lowered stance really set it off. Great minds, haha

Ah! I was thinking of the old Italeri 740, I think. It was a 4-door. Sure looks cool

Cool! Is this the old Italeri kit? Or the (nicer, pricier) Tamiya kit? Or something else?

Wow! I've really enjoyed seeing your WIP's - having all of the builds together in one thread really shows your creativity.

Man, I love seeing this stuff!

Probably been discussed a few times ... I currently have a couple of Badger 150 dual action airbrushes that I've used for years. Actually, I think they are the only brand/type of airbrushes I've used over the last 35 or more years. Anyway ... was considering giving myself a little Christmas present. What are your recommendations for airbrushes? Only caveats are dual-action and not crazy expensive.

That's some serious surgery there! I'll be watching to see where you go - looks cool!

I should have thought of that! But .... I'd already cleaned up these Rally Wheels. They could be from a Corvette kit, I'm not sure. They're from an AMT kit, but I don't know which one - they were a PIF from the Spotlight Hobbies message board some time back. Quick mockup. Pardon the clutter ...

Decisions .... I'm leaning with the Ralley Wheels, as opposed to the AMT S10/Sonoma wheels ...

Looking good so far!

Wow! This is a super cool build. And all of those 30's vehicles with fender skirts - I want to build them all! (But your skill is a whole 'nother level above mine).

Coat of gloss, polished. Looks better. I think. In the 2nd and 3rd pics, you can see where I dropped the cab. It bounced behind my bench and now I have a little dust/scratches to deal with. sigh....

That looks really sharp! Very nice work!

This is very true. Can the included 4x4 parts - transfer case, etc. be used to make a 4x4 S10, as opposed to an All-Wheel-Drive (fictional) S-10?

Son of a Gun - that looks nice!

Thanks. I hope the Dull Red looks less ... hmmm ... poo with a coat of gloss ... I might should have used a brighter red.

I think this is from the Waverider release, but maybe it is from the later 3-n-1 release. I have several of the earlier issues of the Monogram Chevrolet S10, all stored in one box. I don't recall exactly how or where I acquired them. My original goal was to build an extended cab to replicate my Dad's 1988 4.3. Hopefully, I can do that one day. Anyway, rooting through the box, I've started putting one together. Here is the kit so far - body painted two-tone red/silver - it'll be covered in a gloss clear closer to final assembly - hopefully Tamiya Dull Red will shine up with some gloss. Interior is done - box stock, with the exception of some flocking added to represent carpet. Show here just kind of tacked together. Tamiya paints and washes throughout. Please excuse my high quality phone pictures ...

I suppose the Syclone was really just an all wheel drive S-10.

That color really suits the truck. Nice build!

Wow! This looks like fun!

That turned out really sharp!
