Thanks Mark and Tom....it was a fun build trying to think of everything I could add to it.  I still need to get better at it yet...I started a 64 Dodge 330 one awhile back but it got sidelined for the moment.

very nice work !    great details !

Thanks Gino...:)...I appreciate the comments very much it was my first attempt at one like this and was a fun build.  Normally a badly warped kit/model just becomes extra parts..I figured this way it would not go to waste and be something...LOL..

Wow Mark,this truck is great !Reminds me of when I was a kid and we'd stumble upon an old truck or car like this in the woods.I can almost smell the musty interior and oil and grease.Fantastic job!

I really like it very cool build, lots of detail I especially like the junk in the bed, I have a tire and a valve cover in the back of mine but they aren't visible in the picture I took.

I love it.  I like those tattered and battered well used models.  I think they are more challenging then a straight build.  I like your color choice and all the extra detailing. 

K.... Thanks it was a long but fun build...my first like this.  I have more planed for the future...maybe even a diorama of a old junkyard...?

     Mark,

           Don't know how I missed this awesome build !  But aside from your talent ,skill and creativity. What I like most is that you have stated many times. That for you it was a fun build!

In my mind that is what the hobby is about , and what I try to do when building my models.

 

 

  Be Well

Thanks guys...:) !   Building is supposed to be fun or relaxing...it helps me pass all the time and keeps me sane....I think...LOL..  The nice thing about building is you have the choice to make it what ever you want or think of.  Id like to make several of these kind of builds have one that has been stalled for awhile I have to get back to sometime of a 64 Dodge 330...I still have a lot to learn yet on weathering.

I have followed Mark now for years . He has been an inspiration to me , ( Not in modeling , per say ) but the tenacity to make a dream come true . Yeah Mark , as I lay dieing in 2010, I KNEW I HAD to make a decision . Your unending attempts at resurrecting Promotional s sort of "Sparked " me to go further and do more , THANK YOU ..................................

Thanks..!  Glad to be a positive influence or of help.  yes I have been through a lot and still going through things that challenge me everyday but if I just give up what good would that be...?...none.   I have never been a quitter and hope never to get to that point...long as I can fight everything I will.

Great job with all of the detailing you have done Mark.

You have captured the look of a truck that has seen better days really well.
