this is a MacGyvered work truck I did not have all of this Chevy pick up model I had traded away the hood and removed the sides of the bed either for a trade or for another model project I lost the tailgate and back bumper and grille and used the original dash Guage cluster and steering colum on another build I had to create a engine from and a reason for no hood so that is were the over sized blower and blower hat workds perfectly for it since this was originally a snap fast plus model the chassis did not have a opening for the lower half of a engine and transmission to sit in so I had to cut off the transmission and oil pan from a 92 firebird formula v8 engine to get it to fit I found a battery that would fit in my parts boxes as well as a back bumper I made the new sides for the bed from the sides of trailers that came with the 68 coronet rt convertible kits I also got most of the tools and the gas cans and side mirrors from those kits I made the net style tailgate from a peice of material I cut from the back of my computer desk chair I weathered the tools in the back with Vallejo train colors gresse/oil weathering liquid

i have the original version of love potion number 9 that has the missing original love potion number 10 lyric at the end of the  playing in the background
