Rbray47 Posted December 21, 2024 Posted December 21, 2024 I remember seeing these everywhere when I was a kid. I thought they were so ugly, but 35 years later they're not so bad. This was built mostly out of the box, but I did scratchbuild a 5 speed trans and shifter. Paint is Tamiya and Krylon shortcuts. The trailer is the Amt/Imc autoworld 36 footer used as a placeholder. 10
trick my mixer Posted December 21, 2024 Posted December 21, 2024 Nice job. I especially like the black window trim. Adds a lot of detail. Steady hand I can assume. Also nice detail on the Ford lettering on front of Cab.
Gary Chastain Posted December 21, 2024 Posted December 21, 2024 Wow, such a nice classic build, very well done.
Jim B Posted December 21, 2024 Posted December 21, 2024 Great looking Ford. These C900 Fords were synonymous with Roadway back in the day. Well done.
The Brush Posted December 22, 2024 Posted December 22, 2024 Very nicely built, Used exhaust is a nice detail. Well done.
leafsprings Posted December 22, 2024 Posted December 22, 2024 Very impressive fleet truck build, everything looks perfect! Especially like the super detailing work, definitely one of the best!
Pete68 Posted December 22, 2024 Posted December 22, 2024 Nice clean build. Your right these were everywhere back in the day. I read a article in Over Drive Magazine how Phil Jensen build one like yours back in 1973 so they been around for a long time. Also I have seen ads that were in the 1960s of the Roadway Ford C trucks Thanks for sharing.
1959scudetto Posted December 22, 2024 Posted December 22, 2024 Maybe the truck is ugly, but your model is great - like fresh from the factory, very clean build !
Rockford Posted December 23, 2024 Posted December 23, 2024 Great workaday trucks combo. Gasoline engine too!
BK9300 Posted December 24, 2024 Posted December 24, 2024 Super clean build - dashboard looks very detailed, too - very nice!
Bren Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 Wow! Immaculate build Randy. I always look at several things (Sorry - can’t help myself) as indicators of a superb build - paint finish/borders between colours. Crisp window gasket edges. Everything lines up and is square. Detailing seamlessly fits into the overall model. You hit each one 10/10 - a pleasure to look at. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Rbray47 Posted December 27, 2024 Author Posted December 27, 2024 Thanks for all of the compliments everyone.
