Started this a while back, kinda lost interest in it. Dug it out the other day and decided to get back into it. Gona do a two tone, baby or powder blue and white. Already added side moldings and drip rails. Dumped the 350 and put a 454 in it. Thanks for looking.

Looks like a great start, the colors sound perfect. 

 

The side trim looks good, what size did you use to create it? I have plans to do one of these like that but haven't figured out what size to go with.

Great job on adding the moldings. I have started doing this on a few builds and really like how much it adds to the appearance.

I believe it was .010x.020 evergreen strip.

Made a little more progress on the GMC. Got the white on it. Also repositioned the shock mounts ( didn't like the angle of them). Also scratched out some shocks. Because I gave it a little bit of lift so originals were to short. Here are a couple of pics of the F250 I'M going to build. Going to attempt to build camper shell and make it an off road bug out vehicle. Thanks for lookin and the input.?

Joel fantastic painting and your trim on the sides makes it really pop. I did the same trim on my 74 Jimmy about 7 years ago. Looking forward to seeing you finish your build.

Got dusting the other day. This was sitting in the back corner of the case so I took a few pics. I built this for my father in law back in 92. It was of the first brand new truck he had  ever bought. Upon his passing in 2015 my mother in law returned it to me, and told me that this and the 1:1 that he still owned were two of his most prized possessions. The running boards and mud flaps were scratch built .  Thanks for lookin.?
