BIGTRUCK Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) Well here goes? Straighten roof chop and install roof....fill in deep grooves where someone sanded on the doors...bring back door opening lines...locate a hood (resin)...I left the front end (grille/bumper) just the way I got it from a good friend...make front and rear glass...modify car interior to fit the truck...make the rear ramp bed...find a frame and extend to fit the cab and body...get dually tires to work...make door handles out of evergreen plastic...dig through parts boxes constantly.....put together than take it apart more than once...primer,paint and dullcoat, add a few decals and vow to only do easy stuff from now on..?

espo Posted December 6, 2020 Posted December 6, 2020 Enjoyed your build on this and your save on the chopped top looks great. With the Valiant on board this would make a great Saturday Night Special.
alan barton Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 The chopped top on the truck makes perfect sense because it keeps the mighty Val out of the clouds instead of looking like it is on an Evel Knievel ramp awaiting take off! And that white grille - you need to thak your friend for aging it so perfectly to suit the truck! I think the entire race team has come together really well. You even got the stub tail of the ramp truck to match the stub tail of the Valiant - genius! I like the dulled paint, this obviously isn't its first season. Dirt track speedway cars are the perfect solution for using up bodies that are past their prime for the street or show scene! Cheers Alan
Sam I Am Posted December 10, 2020 Posted December 10, 2020 Talk about a transformation....that has no resemblance to what you started with. Unbelievable!
