Resin 64 Chevy Crew Cab Pickup

Got some time Sunday afternoon at the bench, small steps on multiple parts. I did decide to work on the headliner. I saw a YouTube tutorial on this process. I will play with some shadowing in the seam lines next.

So here's the shadowing on the headliner, didn't turn out too bad(had a little slip of the pen on that one seam). Also some boat interior work done. The flooring and trailer stand offs are a lighter blue to represent carpeting. While the side vinyl matches the truck interior.

While waiting on parts for my Suburban, I decided to start..... another project!

Got this gem from Ron at RMR at Sharon PA show, couldn't wait to start messing with it!

So far, I made leaf springs, revamped the diffs from the 84 GMC kit, and chose my wheel package. Progress will probably slow down on my model building, I have a big side job coming up.

Here's where I am ...

 

Super height and rims!

Like the addition of the boat as a pull toy for your truck build. I did one of the Hemi-Hydro boats a couple of years ago and used an interior and jet drive conversion from Calnaga Castings.

The boat was an afterthought, I have to say....I believe it is the first small boat I've done!

The interior castings I got from Calnaga fit perfectly and gave me two forward facing and two inward facing seats that are done in a tuck and roll pattern that match the kits side interior panels. Also included was an upholstered guard for the V-Drive unit. Something to consider anyway. The front deck to hull fitting is a little fussy.

Finally an update. Engine is started for the boat, need to make some aluminum velocity stacks. Finally chromed the wheels with SMS Hyperchrome. Turned out pretty good for the first go.
