AMT 1950 CHEVEROLET 3100 PICKUP

[ROY FERGUSON]

AMT 1950 Chevrolet pickup.  Nice kit no flash or warpage. The windshield was basically the same size as the opening.  Trying to put the windshield in it slipped and got glue on it. I fogged the windshield with smoke trying to make it look tinted ,did not work.  I will get another one and figure out the windshield.

Nice looking truck.  Too bad about the windshield, though.

Nice looking pickup.  I've build one and have another one in my stash.  I also have a 49 Chevy pickup 1:1 Restomod.

Great looking Chevy. The color combo look really good. For the windshield , you could try Tamiya smoke spray, the number of coats will determined the darkness you want to achieve. You could also go with the same paint but the acrylic bottle, if  you have an airbrush. I remember in the past, I had a leftover piece of tint windows film. I applied it over a wet coat of future wax from the inside, I had good results. As with the real thing, you remove the bubbles before the liquid wax sets. Do some test on any clear plastic to decide what works best for you.

that looks pretty cool. What colors did you go with?

[ROY FERGUSON]

I did use SMOKE on the windshield .The light color is Rustoleum Winter Haze the fenders are Krylon Ocean Blue.

Do any of you think the tires are a bit small ?
