Lordmodelbuilder Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 Have always loved the 34 Ford PU model. Nice work RRR ! Your truck looks sweet! I love everything about it!
gman Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 That certainly has a sinister, purposeful look- well done.
Jantrix Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 A lot more custom work right there than might be evident, unless you are familiar with the kit. That looks super.
thatz4u Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 looks very old school, like when I was young...nice work...
4cefed Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Loving everything about this truck, have some left over hot rod parts that I hope to build something as cool as this with, Ben
Cpt Tuttle Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 I like the channeling, it transforms the looks completely. Now you made me want to channel mine too, not good, hmm.......
