'93 Ford Ranger & trailer

[tuffone20]

This month our club (moonlightmodelers.com) is doing the '90's as the theme and I'm working on a '93 Ford Ranger Splash. And this is how I'm building it.

I took the stake bed from the Lindberg '34 Ford Pickup Because I'm going to be building that kit into the tow truck.

Then I started looking at the truck up and thought hey I could make a trailer out of it and hook it up to the Ranger and it would be kind of funny.

I used some parts from the Model King Open Road Camper and made a frame.

Here it is with some paint on it.

I like the way it's turning out.

Thanks!

Thats something diffrent.

Yep that's what I was going for.

Was hoping to have more of it done today, but how that we are hitting the 100's I'm going to have to move my modeling to the house and out of the garage!!!

Did a little more to the Ranger and should have it done in time for the club meeting on Saturday.

I still did to make a gas filler tube.

Here what I did for tail lights and I might add another set of them?

I think I'll make a mold of this part so I can have some more of them.

That was a pretty cool idea you had . I like it very much.

Man this is so cool!!! All the work I put into this build paid off at our club meeting because it was voted the best one there and now this makes it 3 months in a row I have won and I'm feeling pretty good about that!!
