Terry Jessee Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 '73 Dodge is a kit bash--'78 D-100; resin pickup box; Modelhaus '73 grill, hood, and dash; '78 Warlock chassis pan and suspension. '78 is out of the box. '77 CUCV is a kit bash--Thunders Truck is all I remember. Terry 3 1
happy grumpy Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 nice bunch you have there. I like the weathering. I wish they would re-issue the warlock. I like that era of the dodge trucks. keep up the good work
Smoke Wagon Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 Sweet lookin’ shorty 4x4! I think the tool box is the cherry on top ?
Zippi Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 Good looking collection of Dodge trucks. I like the motorcycle in the back.
espo Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 Great looking trio. The 4x4 work truck has a very realistic looking finish without being overdone. The Yellow truck looks very clean and a great calling card for a business to use. The Camo truck needs a rifle rack in the rear window and it would be ready to head out.
Oldcarfan27 Posted October 14, 2021 Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) I so remember that CUCV from one of your write-ups in one of the old model car magazines in the 80s. I seem to recall a yellow, rusty, beat up, 4x4 1972 Chevy pickup with a horse rack and tobacco droppings. Wasn't that yours too? Edited October 14, 2021 by Oldcarfan27
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted October 14, 2021 Posted October 14, 2021 Great looking trucks! The blue one is my favorite!! Great work!
NOBLNG Posted October 14, 2021 Posted October 14, 2021 They are all great looking, but that blue one has about the best weathering job I’ve seen. With the right background you could mistake it for a 1:1.?
Dominik Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 the shorty is very cool. like all three. looking good!
Classicgas Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 Nice work. I remember driving a truck like that camo job when I was in the service.
Jim B Posted October 16, 2021 Posted October 16, 2021 Nice collection of Dodges. I like the CUCV. Didn't know Dodge made those; all the ones my unit had were Chevrolets. Where did you get the Triumph?
2doors3pedals Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 Great looking Dodges Terry! I'm pretty sure you started the weathered look trend way back in the 90s with your Cowboy Cadillac at GSLMCC. Looks like you still do it best. I'm inspired to finish my '78 short bed! I hope our paths cross again someday soon.
bisc63 Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 Very cool stuff! Love the trucks; hard to pick a favorite, but the weathering on the blue one really makes it real to me. Your book on detailing pickups was one of my first purchases when I got back into building/collecting models. Lots of good info for modeling in general in that book. Thanks!
leafsprings Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 I really like the '73 4x4, it has a no nonsense look to it, a honest hardworking earner, not a show boat to impress the kids.
