Looking good so far. Wheels will suit this build. Love that exhaust tip although you wouldn't want it with bagged suspension.

Sorry Alex, slight brain malfunction. Of course it would work.

[Vintage AMT]

No problem. I do that quite often myself..

I like the "Old Wood" finish on the bed floor.

So, one last mock-up pic, and it's time to start putting this together.                                                                                                                                                                            *

I like the rusty look Alex. I want to try that myself. What's the process?

Well, kinda hard to explain because I really don't have one. I just go at it, I use artist oils, chalk, rotten stone, pumice, applied with various short hair brushs, I use foam to blend and smooth, 0000 steel wool to knock down some of the roughness, no two come out the same. Just have fun with it, you really can't mess up. *
