wraith replied to Rob McKee's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Looking good! I like the suicide door idea! -
It might be a lil ways yet! lol! already have 5 projects going right now. too many at once but one idea on one leads to a idea on another and you get the idea. I will post pics when I get to working on it! Keep up the good work so I can have more to try on my truck!

Looking good! I have always wanted to try to scratchbuild a custom frame like this for a truck. maybe someday! -
LOOKS NICE! I have built a couple of these over the years and have one on my bench right now. I have never realy had much fitment issues. I alil snading here and there and everyting fits good. maybe i just have been lucky with mine and the fitment? I am a MOPAR guy but this has always been one of my favorite non-MOPAR kits to build over the years.

The down side to model forums
wraith replied to martinfan5's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
If seeing someone else's WIP doesn't make me go buy that particular model kit, it can get my ideas flowing about what to do to a kit I have collecting dust. Or to redo someting I have already done! -
It's looking good! Black caddy's always look cool!

40 Ford Pickup
wraith replied to Rob McKee's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
I always have liked this kit. even with it's issues. I built one when I was a kid and loved it. I picked up one a couple years ago and plan on doing a mild rat rod with it. Looking forward to seeing your progress -

1968 El Camino wip..
wraith replied to tyrone's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
VERY NCE! Although I like the 1st set of wheels better. -
Both trucks are looking good! Detail both beds!!!! Just a suggestion as I was just looking over my Stepside I built years ago, I wish I would have mini tubbed the bed so the wheel/tire combo would sit inside the fender instead of sticking out. That would make your wheel/tire combo really stand out! just my 2 cents If i hadn't done such a decent job on mine when I was a kid I would strip her down and do a full resto and minin tub her. As far as a master cylinder, I used one from the Monogram S-10 kit. Lil newer than the truck but as in real life its a upgraded part!

OUTSTANDING WORK! I love the matching Aspen and Ram!!!! Also really digging the Pontiac!

Well done as usual Mike!

wraith replied to Olskoolrodder's topic in Model Cars
Started onone of mine again last night! waiting on parts to arrive for the 77 Dodge 4x4 truck I am building right now. Looking at my parts box for wheels and tires for the Daytona, wondering what wheels and tires you put on yours? -
