New AMT kit with a few minor alterations. The front bumper and lift gate were scratch built, and optional mirrors from the 1992 1500 kit were swapped on.

Don't try any "spot the stuff from Iceman Collections" drinking games. The base model grille came from Iceman Collections , and so did the kegs and milk crate in the bed. That fantastic little toilet is from jaysresinwheels1948 on ebay, though Iceman also sells a toilet as part of a diorama set.

The vending machine and cooler came from a couple AMT Coke branded kits, and a Moebius F250 spare tire and wheel fill out the rest. The body was weathered and damaged and I gave the rear suspension a sag.

Not sure where Larry is taking all that stuff but the truck can almost handle it.

Nicely done.  I like the weathering.  It that "constriction debris"? :lol:

I'm pretending that Coke cooler is just absolutely crammed full of snakes ?

Like all the body damage and paint finish. The tail gate and front bumper look great. A pickup isn't a pickup unless there is debris in the bed.

What? No rust or dings on the junk in the bed? No hard water stains on the toilet? No patina on the Coke machine? No miles on those kegs? Looks a bit like Larry robbed a department store!

Just kidding with you, the truck looks fantastic, right down to the broken fiberglass fender.

I might add some more stuff to the bed, a little more weathering will happen then. Or I'll just say screw it and leave it all as is ... But add some blue stains to the toilet bowl. ?

That is what Fred and Lamont Sanford would have upgraded to when their pick up finally gave out. I quess Larry had the higher bid......how much for the Toilet lid?
