cool project idea, nice job.

I like it, I hope you enjoyed building it despite the troubles.

Nice!

Welcome!

Welcome John. Look forward to seeing your work.

Very cool stuff

Looks really nice!

wow, you got those decals to settle down nice and snug

well..another on my to get list.

two part filler, like the evercoat you show, are great because they do not shrink, but if you buy off/discount brands, sometimes they are quite porous and you have to use a load of primer. They also do not "bite" into the plastic and if you do not rough up the surface, may pop off later in your project. I will say that I use the stuff you show above, but I also use spot putty for smaller work, and even mister hobby dissolved putty for things like ejector pin marks etc. I even will use melted sprue when needed. Essentially saying, no one putty for all uses, find what works for you.

good looking truck.

Wow!

Glad you mentioned this. I had considered those books before.

Thanks for the clarification! I can see it both as a truck, AND HotRod based on the bed. I had that same thing come up with a couple builds of mine. Either way, following with interest! And, thanks for the heads up on TRaK. I do miss the TRaK of the Month tho. Always saw something new. If it is RodBurner that is facing some issues, I hope they all workout. He has always produced some cool rods, and has always been an asset to the hobby IMO.

I am confused. Why would this be moved to the pickup forum if it is nobody's idea of a pickup? Cool project. Interesting you mention TRaK, I was not sure they were still up and running. The last message I saw on the TRaK of the month was like Nov 2015. Their TRaK of the month cover car shows like April 2015.

sharp!
