I love those little trucks, Luke. I have one or two of those kits I would like to build one of these lifetimes!
Totally agree with you Virgil.They are cool trucks and being that they are basic/simplified kits makes them very enjoyable to build.I have a few more in the stash too,one day il build another one.
Hey luke what kit is that Subaru?
Hey Shane, the Subaru was built from this Fujimi kit.

Couldnt resist posting a teaser pic,not much left to do now.
-
You can never go wrong with black.
Thats what I reckon too, black and chrome are such a good combo.
The wheels on the very first picture, do you recall where they are from?
Mike the wheels on the Hilux are from the kit.
-
Two other things that I like to do to make my builds individual to me is apply Lead City Customs decals on the back window of my builds. And also take water reflective pics .
-
I would say my new found style is to paint my builds black.And I also try my hardest to build as clean as possible.
-
Im not a 100% certain or it could be just rumour at the moment, Nissan might use the Altima V8 sedan.
-
Thanks alot Virgil.
Yep, I most definetly want to see it finished too.
Im really looking foward to seeing all the chrome work against the black,so that in itself will keep me going.
-
Wow ! that paint job just went up another level.
You have some serious skill's John.
-
Really starting to look like the 1:1 now John.
Excellent work and the paint job is tops.
-
Being that im a bit of a lowrider fan, il definetly be watching this build.
Like the stance and how its shaved smooth.
-
Good job on the paint.
Look foward to seeing it completed.Going to be tuff looking for sure.
Built one of these a couple years back, a good subject and kit.
-
Nice work so far.
-
Paint job on the Belair,my usual and favourite colour of course.
-
Thanks Paul.
Ive got my fingers crossed in hope that it turns out ok.
-
Count me in for sure.
Currently working on a AMT 62 Chev Belair.
Its not going to be over the top or have a flashy paint job, just going to look like a clean daily driver.
Paint job is done,will post up some pics soon.
-
Well done to all you fella's that finished.Some excellent results for 3 day build ups.
I stopped working on the Impala for a few days as I wanted to make the most of the very hot days we had last week and got another builds paint job done on.
Currently the Impala has everything painted and now its just a matter of applying bmf and start final assembly.Hope to have it completed very soon.
Tamiya TS-14 straight from the can finish.
-
Top job Paul a looks good.
Im glad I decided join this CB too,even though I didnt finish.It has helped to get me out of a slump and motivated me to start building again.
-
Fit's the Bosozoku style well Shane,good job
Well fella's judging by tomorrow's weather report,it aint going to be any better than it was today
So consider me a non-finish'er for the this CB
I will post the Impala Under Glass when completed,which should hopefully be by the end of the week.
Keep at it ,hope you all get your builds done and look foward to seeing them.
-
Good work by all,everyone seems to be progressing well.
I got the primer on the body wet sanded and is ready for paint also have all other parts mounted and ready for primer and paint.
But Im currently at a stand still at the moment,had some rain here this morning and now its to humid to paint.
Hope tomorrow is a better day for painting.
So I dont think my build will be finished within the 3 day time frame,but il keep posting progress as it happens.
-
Jeeze Kyle your on fire,looks like your just about done.
-
WOW ! you guys are cruising along.
Paint job looks good Rob,not bad for straight out the can.I agree with you about tamiya paints.They are my prefered choice too
Kyle and Charles your builds are progressing well.
I got a bit side tracked with non model related stuff.
But body has been prep sanded and currently soaking in dishwashing detergent,will get some primer on it after tea then let it dry overnight.
Whilst the body drys il get evrything else prep'd and start some sub assemblies.Going be a late night need to catch up on lost time,and get everything ready for paint tomorrow.
Keep at it fella's
-
Paul the body of your build looks real nice ,clean and shiny for sure.
Got the wheels temporarily mounted and ride height set
Now onto the prep work.
-
All-righty then, time to get started.
Inspiration for my build
Over view of parts etc
Going to start with adapting the pegasus wheels to kit parts,then lower it a bit.
Once thats done il clean up and prep the body for a prime,which should be a good start to the day.
Will post some mock up pics after the ride height is set.
-
Yeah, until it's luffing on top of the first speed hump. Then it's ridiculous.
Airbags maybe ??
Even then if it dont rise much,I wouldnt go anywhere near a speed hump with a ride slammed that much
