wrecker388 Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 This really isn't a new build, but it's been revamped a bit. Thanks for looking. All comments welcome.
Sixties Sam Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 Very nice! Looks like it has had a long life of service. Lots of character! Nice work on the bed (I assume it's scratch built). I like the 6-banger engine, too. I'm working on a Revell 65 Chevy pickup, stock build, now and I wish it had a six. Sam

Considering it's a 1/24 scale engine I decided to call it a 292. The bed is scratch built.

The bed is scratch built. A 292 is a completely different block. You would be more accurate calling a 261, which used the same basic block as a 235. Neither the 235 or 261 are correct fro Chevrolet after '62, though. The engine from a Trumpeter Nova (also available in resin) would be more accurate.

mustang1989 Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Cool build! Are those the wheels from the Dukes of Hazzard Charger kit Riley?
