Brianl Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Finally done & pretty pleased with how it looks. This was my first truck build & a lot of fun. Started with the Lindberg L700 kit & added a Viper V10 with turbos! Since its a race truck it was lowered a little & a few aero mods added. Hope you like it. Brian
Badluck 13 Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Cute and Wicked.....can I use both of those words in a sentence at the same time?!?!?!?.....Dare to be different and this different is way cool!!!
Perspect Scale Modelworks Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Oh wow! Great imagination and execution.
kilrathy10 Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) HOPE WE LIKE IT!!!!???? Man, this thing is flat out AWESOME !!!!!! That's creativity, Guys....Not knocking anybody else, for sure, but this has to be the BEST version of this truck I've seen to date.......That is just a wonderful setup.....That would look good on the back of a Papa truck painted to match....Or even a Dodge with the Ford Race Hauler bed on the back.....I'm really liking this one....ESPECIALLY THE PAINT SCHEME!!!!!!

Intmd8r Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 Nice work - reall creative!I've heard several times over that the L700 is a PITA to build, so it make me appreciate this build that much more.
cobraman Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 That truck is wild,cool and different. All good things ! I love it.
Lunajammer Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 Off the charts! You don't find many models with this much zing! Well done my friend.
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 This is the coolest version of this kit that I've seen yet!! Excellent work!!!
Silver Foxx Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Awesome work Brian , your builds are so different and so great to look at .
Brianl Posted May 2, 2016 Author Posted May 2, 2016 Thank you for the kind comments gentlemen. It was a bit of a worry posting a bit of a weird idea on a truck site but it was a lot of fun to get done.Steve - there are bits of this kit that are a pain in the proverbial but one of the secrets of custom building is that it lets me duck around the hard bits !!!JT - I did play around with the idea of transporter but there other weird things in my head that have to get out so it'll have to wait till another day. I have a Merc SLS AMG GT3 sitting here. if I get a street version I could cut & shut it into a modern version of the Merc transporter they used in the 50's.... Anyone care to have a go at that one?Thanks againBrian
redneckrigger Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 On first look, I asked myself "WHY?"...................but then as soon as I looked at it again, I said "Why NOT!!!!". That has to be one of the most, if not THE most imaginative truck build I can remember seeing. The whole concept screams ABSOLUTELY POSSIBLE! Add to the fact that I have had a soft spot for cabovers and those cute/ugly Dodge trucks for my whole life. One of my first sets of wheels was a '68 Dodge van used for my parent's business and I put LOTS of miles on her. I can only wish to have 1% of your imagination and skill! Truly awesome! Now for a chopped Dodge C-1000 hauler with aero effects.....in orange, of course.........!
