Big Messer Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago Just got a 1941 Chevrolet 1/16 scale fire dept pump truck (probably an Ertl copy) with missing parts for $9.99 so I am going to turn into a house truck, pretty much like the one I posted before, but far more detailed. Plans are not final yet, will make a paper mockup first to see how things look. Probably to make smooth sides to imitate plywood and metal panels roof. Also want to make a detailed interior. Materials to be used would be thin plywood, styrene and/or aluminum sheet. Ideas that would make sense welcomed but will be subject to approval by management.
Big Messer Posted 8 hours ago Author Posted 8 hours ago (edited) The thing will be a 18" monstrosity. Want to keep the cab red with the lettering. Rear verandah will be foldable up with handrails (brass?) that will be collapsible flat before raising it with a roll canopy on top. Check scribbled notes scattered all over. Will have an opening on the rear cab wall to go into the house. Edited 8 hours ago by Big Messer
