1965 Chevrolet Extended Cab Pickup

[Chariots of Fire]

Looks like you have hit the nail on the head!  The real one shows that you have!!

Nice work sir, your modifications on the cabin are flawless!?  This is a very cool subject and will create a beautiful truck no matter what color you choose (but it looks great in red...)!

Any updates on this build? You've got me excited!

Thank you all for your comments, I really appreciate it!!  ?

Took two weeks off on vacation but unfortunately, due to the rain and delayed home projects, there was not much progress on the build.

Hi Tom!!!

I finished the urethane mold for the Cab, but the resin is getting saggy, as soon as I unmold it it warps from the sides. I was able to use some on the chassis I casted a couple of weeks ago but it looks that the catalyst of the remaining pots I have is not hardening the resin enough. I will order new resin next week so as soon as I have a decent cast I will post some pics.

Luis,

I'm glad you were able to get some vacation time in. A good break on occasion is needed. I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes next. Keep the updates coming on the build when you get them. It's looking good.

Looking great. Here's a photo of one I just seen last month at the NSRA East Show in York, PA

Luis,

This is some amazing work! I love the look you are going for. Can't wait to see it in paint. Will you be selling any of your casts? I'd love to get a cab, chassis and interior.

Later-

Love all three, so Ditto on the casting.

Nice work! Nothing says macho like a crew cab dually.... -RRR
