1934 Ford Pickup High Boy

[Plasticated Guy]

Hello, everyone. I finally managed to finish this one today after several months of constant problems whether through my own doing or because of the kit itself. I had built one of these before in the same style. Unfortunately, that truck had found out about gravity and couldn't be salvaged. I was able to save only the tires, the exhaust headers, and the seat belts. I soon got another pickup and began building it to be like it's predecessor. Among the problems I encountered were: having to rebuild a new chassis due a heavy object smashing the first one, replacing the dashboard with one from the Revell 1929 Model A because I tried to modify the '34 by cutting out the old gauge panel for the custom panel only to slice the dash in two, and ruining the paint trying to remove glue marks after everything was together. Still, getting it finished was the main goal and a shelf model it will remain.

Nice work, green is my favourite colour ?

[Plasticated Guy]

Thanks for the comments, guys. Thatz4u, I've had problems before, but never this bad. Kah puts, the color is Rustoleum Hunter Green inside and out. I also have Dark Hunter Green and I plan to use them for future projects. And those pics are the best angles. ?

I like the pickups and I've built a couple of the 34's.  Nice job.
