Jim thanks for the complement I found this one on eBay the body is a Freeman body with nice detail but it did have some air bubble holes to fill. The front bumper is ruff on the back side causing a poor fit so I ordered new bumpers from Modelhaus and received my notice today that they have shipped.
Worked on adding more hoses on the engine and also add a windshield washer hose. Still just test fitting and checking the assembly and fit the exhaust pipes up to the header manifolds. Also sprayed a 2nd coat of Hemi orange in sanding the first coat I had to many areas that I burnt through to the primer.
I've looked at what it would take to build one of these types of trucks but have not been able to convince myself to do one yet. Do you have any more pictures would like to see more details on your great build.
Worked on getting the body ready for the 2nd coat and did another trial fit to see how it's going to look. While I'm waiting for the Modelhaus bumpers to arrive I'm working on the existing bumper to see what I can do with it to make it fit and add chrome to it. Here's today's progress pictures. Thanks for your comments.
Mike I agree with the decal just would not of looked real like the grill you have gone with. I like the steel over the brass it's the same as the 1:1 Magnum SRT grill.
Some updates from today. Started work on the engine, detailed the wheels and more work on the body the resin body had a couple air bubbles that needed to be fixed. Also checked to see if the hood would close with the Hemi
