PHPaul Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) I picked up a MPC "Deserter" kit intending to use the 4WD components to build a 4WD conversion for a '50 Chevy 3100. (Details Here. ) I decided to go a little more realistic with a 4WD Kit from Fireball Model Works, so the Deserter kit just sort of sat there. Got bored and decided to build it as a redneck beater just for giggles: In addition to prototypical rust (I've owned a few Chevy trucks...) I added some scale beer cans on the floor of the cab and some junk in the bed. I finally sprung for a 3D printer and printed the concrete blocks. BTW, apologies for my earlier indiscretion. Pictures of the offending decal were left out of this post. Edited January 19, 2021 by PHPaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PappyD340 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 It certainly fits the part, nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I like the distressed look of this. There are more than a few that look like this or worse in my area now. I like the concrete box for added traction during the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
