Fifer Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 Looking great!Thanks so much, I loved building it.Mike
Preston Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Great looking truck. I'm working on this kit presently. What paint did you use to shoot the body color?
gtx6970 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Looks nice. Really like the color . And the 1/1 truck went thru several color variations thru the yearsI know the opening doors pose a challenge , but its nice to see you nailed it just fine .When I built mine many years ago, I managed to get the doors to work. Which is a nice feature of the kit , especially for the time period it was originally tooled up. But sadly a few years back while dusting ,,,mine took a nose dive off the shelf and the only way to repair it without a major overhaul was to glue the doors in permanently closed position. A tip, when dusting pull them off the shelf ONE at a time, then after dusting said shelf put them back on the shelf ONE at a time. Trust me
High octane Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I got her finished today. I had fun with it and the kit posed a few small challenges but it is now complete. Thanks , Mike Very nice build on that LRW Mike, as you did a great job. I've been lucky enough to see the LRW a few times at the drag strips, and I know the owner of the latest (?) LRW who has this in his collection..............................
