David@MinidreamsInc. Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 Started off with 2 monogram duallie kits And i cut them into 2 making 1 of them a crew cab and the other 1 i made a single cab duallie I ended up making the single cab into a short bed duallie for a good freind of mine ** MODELTECH** I just couldn't see wasteing the other kit so i did a quick glue , mud , sand , job then sent it on its way ! Heres my real project ! Its another build i want to finish up in the next few weeks . And why just stop with custom making a new cab ! I got a ton more done already i am just waiting on the batteries to charge up on the camera ! As soon as thats been done i'll post up more pics. Hope you all like !

george 53 Posted May 31, 2008 Posted May 31, 2008 I know it's kinda late now, But I sure woulda liked seein how you hindged those doors(especialy the rear) And made the hoodscoops. It's really comin out great.Funny what you can do with a little plastic car, when you put your imagination to it,Eh? Your a VERY talented builder.

David@MinidreamsInc. Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 Well I wont be getting this finished in time ! I had a very bad day around here ! Frist off i sprayed the chassie and it never dried for some reason ! I used a wal mart brand flat black but IT SUCKS ! So i knew i had to re finish that so i finished the body work off and started to add color , Then added my pen work then started to clear it when my boy took off towards the street to see the ice cream van i instantly dropped everything in my hands and took off after him , I must have scared him cause he turned to look at me a fell and rough the ###### out of his hands , knees , and his little face ! So after i claimed him down and washed him up i went out to see what the damage was ! LOOKS LIKE I HAVE TO STRIP IT AND REDO IT ! But here's where it was ! Man i really wanted to have this completed by the 21st but I will now turn my focus to my other project i want to finish up !
george 53 Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 The color combo is great!you gonna re-finish the same way?Looks goodthat way.Keep workin on it or you may never get back to it!(been there,done that!)
