1950 Ford Pikes Peak Truck

[Zippi]

Just finished this one up earlier today.  This is the Monogram 1950 Ford Pickup kit that has been build as a Pikes Peak runner.  Power comes from an Iceman Ford 7.3 Diesel Power Stroke engine on Nitro's.  The body kit and wheels & tires come from Texas 3D Customs.  Nitro's bottles are also from the Iceman.  Body color is Tamiya Light Grey Surface Primer cleared with Tamiya X-22 Clear.  All the bright work was blacked out using Tamiya TS-29 Semi Gloss Black then cleared.

Beautiful looking truck. The paint finish is nice and smooth, and the body kit is over the top. Like the detailed bed and contents. 

[Street Rod]

The ol’ 50 turned out awesome! Great job as always!

[Gary Chastain]

Well done, great build

[IceMan Collections]

Killer build. If that Powerstroke engine isn’t enough, NOS should help!

I really like that you painted those bottle white instead of the common blue. 

thanks for the support. ??

[crazyjim]

Awesome build.

[Perspect Scale Modelworks]

Cool concept and great execution.   I like the color. I've cleared Tamiya white primer before so now I'll try the gray.

Thank's man.  I haven't cleared the white primer before but I know it would look Awesome as well.

Extreme and radical. Love that truck. That color with the black contrast makes it b/a even more. Monogram did a real nice job on this kit. You brought it up to the next level. That's a killer.

[NitroMarty]

Outstanding build!!!! 

I have recently become somewhat infatuated with the widebody look and have ordered a couple of 3D printed body kits for a Mustang and a Camaro.... Seeing your truck, I think I'll now be ordering another! ?
