OMG did that turn out to be a great result in a short time. That thing looks like it traveled thru time from the early '60's. It has the look of a farmer's go to town truck but with a bit of hot rod mixed in. I know turbo's were not all that common in the '60's . Still looks fun.
While I'm a flathead lover but my two cents worth, you almost have to go with the stovebolt in order to stay with the "something different" theme. Although a turbo'ed Flattie would be cool.
This the way both full sized hot rods and models happened. Before 3d printing and the aftermarket. You built kits and used the spares for something different. Or that's what I did.
I'm looking for a person who can supply me with 1/16 Peterbilt/Kenworth wheels and tires. I'm looking at least 100 tires and the same number of wheels. Equal amounts front and rear. Or maybe a file to print. Thank you for any help. Gary
great finished unit. Had several in collection but they are gone. They always looked like they were going to tip over on their nose. The Ford C-600 was the same to me.
Great show truck for back in the day. Love the wide whites. The wire drivers would not have much of a chance with the torque from that monster. Love the paint scheme and the chrome sleeper.
