Toby this one is a heck of a glue bomb. I'll be surprised to see this one back from the dead.

I like the plow... er front suspension.

This model was the first 'super detailed' and 'not show truck' one I ever built. Old farm truck with tools made from sprue and everything. Like the build!

[tuffone20]

Toby, your glub bomb is coming along really nice!! Keep the updates coming and what color will you paint it this time around?

[Jeff Sauber]

I like the lowered stance, although you wouldn't want to drive it around my home town........We have way too many potholes and ruts everywhere.....

You'd likely end up carrying what's left of your front suspension home in the back of a tow truck...

[Mudpit602]

Thank you all for liking the build. Ill have more pics after a few day. Work is getting in the way of building models. LOL

Hey Toby, maybe you would have had more time to work on your model if you hadn't spent time working on this...... LOL

It is green putty by MMD You can find it at any hobby store.

[Mudpit602]

I got some paint on the truck. It dosesent look the greatest but Iam trying to go for the high school teenage build with a back yard paint job.

[Jeff Sauber]

That's comming along well. Not a bad shade of blue either.

Does the hood shut all the way? also, that front suspension dragging on the ground scares me!!.....lol. I bet that would look cool at night going down the road......we'd have to call you "sparky" as a nickname......

I found out what was holding the hood open. The core support was in the way. I trimmed it down and now the hood shuts all the way.

If I recall correctly, I think I encountered that same issue back when I built one of these kits....At least it's an easy fix. Keep the updates comming.
