Zippi Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 (edited) 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.

IceMan Collections Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 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. 🙌🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy grumpy Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NitroMarty Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 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! 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
