  1. She sits on her own suspension now and has stacks. Will have custom 4x4 decals for the fenders.
  2. just a mockup with the ford 4x4 conversion im doing. yes the ford is sitting on a solid front axle too. Neither have the rear suspension in place yet. The interior is painted and assembled.
  3. used the custom rear axle to make a front axle for this. Also a mockup with the chevy 4x4 dually im doing.
  4. Mockup next to my super duty. Id love to have both of these beasts. Engine and exhaust work coming soon.
  5. sweet looking kit. id build the promo style just so i could say i had one. lol
  6. Just a little paint progress. other bedsides are for my 55 chevy dually.
  7. Heres some paint and suspension progress. The second set of bedsides are for my 50 ford. I need to adjust my rear suspension to sit higher based on what ive seen. And if these pictures arent top quality and bother you just remember for under glass i use better cameras.
  8. Front fenders painted IH red. This is tractor paint it takes a while to dry.
  9. Its fenders have been primed, and the inner bed painted but it takes 24 hours or more for tractor paint to dry so itll be a while before the body and outter bed are painted. Thatll give me time for the suspension and engine
  10. Well started on my 4x4 suspension and engine, yes the turbo is made from a horn and a carb glued together. Still gotta make a transfercase and make sure my suspension will sit level. The front axle started as the rear axle from a ford lightning.
  11. Just got it today as a gift from a friend in the military. Its gonna be IH red and hopefully i can find some agressive tires for it. maybe off the revell jeep rubicon but thatd mean i have to buy the jeep just for the tires. who knows ill figure something out i wanna use the mags that came in the kit on the tires no low rider trucks for me. The bed is painted thats the only work so far.
  12. i just started a regular cab 55 chevy dually with stacks not my f800 but a start
  13. well i decided my wheels. It does have dual rear tires but only a single wheel for those tires. They are from the amt 69 daytona the dragster mags. I have a picture but my phone wont send it to my email currently.
  14. Scratch Built dually fenders just started this project today. Its gonna have stacks and hopefully i can make this engine resemble a 6.2 or 6.5 diesel. Its going to be International Harvester red. The kit's optional window visor will be used. hopefully it will turn out nice. Oh yeah the fenders are made of sheet plastic traced from my brother's stepside fender from his amt 55 stepside to make them. Also expect to see a 50 ford pickup project come up soon it will be IH red also not sure on what kind of plans are in store for it though.
