I sold this truck to a very good friend of mine years ago and decided to see if I could get it back. He restores farm toys so Yesterday I traded some old Farm toys for this Model. When I sold it to him I had already painted the frame and cab one color. Yesterday I painted the top of the cab Mopar Stone White and also painted the engine and installed it painted the wheels sanded the tires and added them as well.

Great work on the cab interior, I can believe it took all day, I bet your eye's needed a rest after, the truck colour scheme is neat too, looking forward to seeing more.

Looking great Lee! I like these old trucks too! I didn't like them back in the day though. Drivers used to say they felt like they were in a fish bowl with the big windshield in these.

Thanks for the complement Brian. I rode in one these one time I back in the 1990s I was a little scared at first felt like I was going to fall face first out on the highway

Looking forward to seeing this one completed. The  contrast between the green and white on cab, frame, wheels plus the super  detailing  will make this one a stand out!

Tom. Thanks for the complement I was fighting with the interior yesterday to make it fit I don’t remember the interior being so difficult. I have to make some more adjustments for the cab to set lower I was ready to give up on this but I’ll try to take another try at it
