This was just a quick, fun, stress free build.  I built it box stock and did not sweat the details.  She is a 3-footer, not a contest quality build by any means.  It is good to just knock out a build and not worry about every little detail.  I am a bit of a sucker for Coca-Cola liveries, (when they make sense).  I did not do a WIP thread because there really wasn't too much interesting things to post.  Hope you enjoy it.

John, your quick build is just fantastic looking. I really like the red you used.

Thanks, Keith!  It is Tamiya Mica Red over their Gloss Aluminum.  The white is their Pearl White.

Turned out great. I notice that the rear door looks like it may open ? The rear side panel looks like it could be replaced with a window also. I like the wheel and tire combo.

Thanks, David!  There really is not much interior detail.  You could cut open the back door, however.  The side panels are actually clear plastic windows.  I installed them, (they don’t really fit all that well), and painted them from the inside.  I then sprayed them primer and body color from the outside.

This kit finally has some decent tires. They look great on your build. There are a tone of options in this kit, so Box Stock can cover an enormous range of builds. You have really showcased how good it can look built just like the box art.   This just ensures I'll be getting one, myself.

You have a great Build there, and it does not look like a "3 Footer" to me.

Nice...I have the old MPC 'Truckin' On Down' molded in black version, looks like the same wheels.  These wheels and tires look like they would look good on a muscle car also..
