Mercuryman54 Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 A replica of one of Dad’s trucks. Mostly right out of the box. Added some Model Car Garage photo etch and some wiring. Factory color of Boxwood green. 8
espo Posted April 22, 2023 Posted April 22, 2023 Great looking paint and trim finishes. Very realistic looking work truck. 1
Biggu Posted April 25, 2023 Posted April 25, 2023 EXCELLENT !, and one of the first of this series built with the correct, black inner fenders and rad support, and green fire wall..... I have the same kit, just recently purchased, and am going to do my truck, which was originally my dad's bought new in Sept, 1968, the only difference is my 250 is Boxwood green over Wimbledon white, and is a 390, 4 speed. My truck is all original, and never seen snow, so no rust, oem glass, floor mats still have the little bumps and a perfect dash pad.... and never been hit !...... what paint did you use? And huge props for almost perfect paint on the hub caps... Beautiful stock build... Cheers Jeff 1

spkgibsonfirebird Posted October 19, 2024 Posted October 19, 2024 Great looking build, I'm working on one right now, I'm in the process of removing all the molded in trim on it, it's going to be painted Diamond Green.
