Jordan White Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I'll be building (or rather re-building) these two kits this summer and just want to see what others here have done with them to maybe get some ideas.
Jared Roach Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I haven't built either but here is a long bed I have built and haven't finished yet, if you get what I mean. The finshed half: and the other half, which isn't close to finished: Don't think these will help but thought I would show you anyways! A little imagination you can do anything to a truck!!
Nick Winter Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 if you look in my signature you'll see what else is on my bench.
MyBradKeselowski Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Dukefan69, both trucks look good... I really like the 84 GMC Dually I,myself am working on the 454 SS at the moment. Can't wait to get it done. This one is molded in black, just shooting some clear over it.. Anyways,enough bull,once again I like the trucks :rolleyes:

That mirror looks a little high? oh wait you have to put your head through the sunroof to use it. Edited February 28, 2010 by tuffone20
Blake Rogers Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 i love this body style Steve reminds me of my dads truck well kinda of great work man
Jordan White Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) If I had to guess, it looks simply like overlapped pieces of black tape (or black painted tape). Edited March 1, 2010 by YJIslander
JamesW Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 I don't see the overlap (maybe I'm not looking hard enough). It just looks like a real soft cover with the support bows.
Reeves Racing Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) Here is a model I did of my personal daily driver. I used a Lindberg 4x4 kit and two Revell kits, one with an extended cab and one with the style side bed. The kit with the style side bed was a long bed and my truck is a std bed so I also had to shorten the bed. The paint is the actual paint code matches of my real truck. I made the decals by taking a picture of the truck and then tweaking it in MSPaint. Edited March 1, 2010 by seveeRRacing
Jordan White Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 I don't see the overlap (maybe I'm not looking hard enough). It just looks like a real soft cover with the support bows. Well from the back view, on the right side of the cover, it looks like there are light edges along the bows (which would suggest the edge of a piece of tape).
JamesW Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 That is true. Maybe I'll try out a few methods and see what I can come up with.
CarModDave Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Here's an AMT Chevy 454SS I built for a client a few years ago. Lots of scratchbuilt stuff (bed cover, bed cover hinges, under hood tanks and details, window vent shades, seat risers, headers, etc.) opening doors, lowered ride height, etc.
Jordan White Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 Looks like the C4 Corvette turn signals, but dunno otherwise. Also, I believe the decals are from the Revell '70 Challenger T/A 2n1 kit.
Railfreak78 Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Maybe that's where the decals came from, but your bumper guess is incorrect. HINT: think Japanese... I know ! I know ! Tamiya Honda Accord?
MyBradKeselowski Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 (edited) Awesome looking truck man!!! Beautiful :rolleyes: Edited March 2, 2010 by kaseykahne09
mustangman Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 You are also incorrect. I hope you realize that Internets aren't really worth anything..... MY TRUCKS Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki
