Oldmopars Posted February 27, 2022 Author Posted February 27, 2022 OK, she is starting to look like a Pepsi truck. I received the decals from tbill (thank you!!) and they went on. I also did some work on the cab. Added thhe lights, mirrors, etc. I also added some detail to the interior. A Pepsi can and a clip board, because you know he has to check off all the drop off location and have a cool drink on those hot days. I needed a hand truck to move the product around, so I made on out of some mechanics wire, 2 O-rings and heat shrink tube for the handle. he wheels are styrene, one tube inside another. I added lights to the box, added the gaurd around the rear wheels, exhaust, and holder under the front bumper for the hand truck. I also added the blind spot mirror on the hood. I ade it out of a chrome wheel cap from the kit and a paper clip. I would like to find some door decals that say Pepsi, or even get some made that have a distributors name and info on it. I'm getting very close. 1

Yes, the door straps are one of those details I have left.
Bills72sj Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 Excellent progress. That will be way cool to have on your display shelf.
tbill Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 That looks amazing ! Glad I could help out with the decals. For a joke, I’d of used a coke can on the seat?
