I put a bit of a wash over the lighter color.......... I think this looks much better!

We have more progress! I've been working on the wooden panels some, and wanted to get you guys' opinion...... They need touching up and a coat of matte clear still. Like I said, some touching up is in order......... They look a lot better in person! What can I do to these pieces to make it look more like real wood? There's what looks like rivets molded in too....... Should I pick those out with a wash or something? Finally, more interior work........ The back of the front seat attaches to the inside of the two walls of the truck's body, so that will be added later...... Anywhooooo..... That's what I've gotten done since last time. Thanks!

One way is, you could sign up for the Model Roundup newsletter! Every month they will send you an email with what's new, and what they will be getting in that month.........

That's a good movie........... very wholesome family movie.......

Oh, that's too bad! I saw how nice that paint job looked in the other thread......... What clear? DupliColor, if you have a way to get that, makes a clear that's safe over pretty much everything. It's called 1K Clear.......... If you want to try it, just be sure to get the high gloss one, as they have a pearl one also..........

'Jazz Has A Sense of Humor' is an album by pianist Horace Silver..........

'Time of the Season' is a really good song by the Zombies; I especially like the keyboard solos........

There is this very short-lived cartoon that Disney Channel used to air at like 2 AM, called Dave The Barbarian............ He was a barbarian, of course, but he would rather bake cookies and make puppets and such! Was a pretty funny show once you learned the characters........... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_the_Barbarian

I like the sketched-on side trim idea! It looks like something MoPar would do, and would give you a line for a tutone paint job........ (should you choose to do so)

Drive-in movies were still in operation when I was young, it's where I watched 'FireStarter' for the first time, which had a house in it that belonged to one of my Dad's relatives.......

'Free Range' dogs probably taste better, it's more organic! (Sorry, I'm a dog lover too....... )

The mods done to these trucks are irrelevant, as the only truck duty they see is pulling an empty trailer around..........

Nose slime and face licks are what I wake up to every morning, thanks to my little (ok, BIG....) furry alarm clock...........

The show 'NewsRadio' is kinda not that well known, even though it ran for four years....... It had The Best cast of any show ever! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NewsRadio Phil Hartman was one of my favorite actors........ When he passed, they replaced his character with John Lovitz, another of my favorites.

'Again' could be the last lyric to every country song ever written.........

This is so very much right up my alley! Love the early kustoms........

Languages of wise men will tell her, "yes, your rear end Does look big in those, and I LOVE it!"

Thanks, Bruce man! I was looking on the 'bay of E for the color codes for these so I could have my local O'Reillys order them for me........

Hey, guys! I have two projects ready for paint, but I'm having trouble finding the exact colors I need for them. It's the names that manufacturers use for their colors that's the problem..... Looking at the Duplicolor sprays, which is what I'm hoping to get help with, there's only 'chrome yellow'. I would like a lighter pale yellow....... What would Duplicolor call a pale yellow? Also, I need a champagne color for my Starliner. What would that be called in DC language? Any help with this is appreciated greatly!

Pay Day's almost totally nuts! (and a really good candy bar at that..........)

'Cookin' With Sasquatch' never really caught on, possibly because he actually did put his foot in the dish...........

That 1st generation Bronco in the foreground is worth about a hundred grand now.............

Another few weeks and you'll finally be able to escape into retirement, though, correct?

My sis and her husband are always getting stuff from MarketPlace........ They pretty much can just deal with people that they either know personally or know thru someone, since they live in kind of a small rural area. She did say once that it takes a bit of searching to get good deals..........

It is good ol' American made steel! They were part of the Big Three, right? Buick, Olds, and Pontiac...........
