Nice truck!

[NOBLNG]

Well done. Nice clean build.?

[Chariots of Fire]

That's cool!  Nice everyday truck.  Think I have one back in the stash.

Where did you get the WT-spec grille?

I found one source, can't remember who. Doesn't look as good as yours does.

Oooh, now that’s a beautiful truck. Great paint. Love the work/fleet specs.

Excellent workin' man's truck. The roads around here were full of these for years, but few so clean!

Great looking work truck, almost too nice to take to the job sight. I like the bed toolbox addition.

Nice looking base Chevy Terry! I plan on doing the same thing with the 454 SS to build a phantom. Did you use the long bed frame?

Frame is a combination of a Modelhaus front (to make a more detailed Extended Cab chassis) and the rear from a 454SS.

It comes with the Chevy 3500 HD cab from Motor City Resin Casters. Be aware that Jeff is a one-man operation swamped to the gills and does take some time to get product out. But product is excellent.

That's him! That's where I got mine from. He was able to cast and send me a couple. The crispness of the casting is excellent for sure, but when unpainted, some of the details seem off. They look great on your build though, so maybe I just need to get some paint on them.

My favorite! Excellent job on this one.

I like the work truck look! Excellent work!

Love all your work. I used to read your articles back in the 80s - 90s in the other mag.

This truck is no exception, love the execution!

fabulous build, looks great

I remember reading about this truck in an issue of SAE. When I was able to, I ordered that same grille from Uptown Automotive. I had a ‘98 Chevy C2500, with the 8-Lug wheels, and want to build a model of how I wanted to get that truck all fixed up the way I wanted it.

Nice build!
