doomcrew Posted April 26, 2010 Author Posted April 26, 2010 thanks guys. it was almost candy blue, but the orange was a better choice for it. i will post some more in progress pics soon. thanks for tuning in. steve
Rick Forrester Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 Steve I'm very interested in how you did the front end. The back end work is great datail. Hope you have pictures of the front work. Will be waiting for them. PAPAFO
charlzrocks Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 Very Smooth and MEAN looking at the same time! KUDOS!
stevehansen Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 Excellent Job, stellar paint and cool old truck.
doomcrew Posted April 26, 2010 Author Posted April 26, 2010 thanks guys. rick, i used shortened front struts from a tamyia ford sierra, with a cut down spring from a pen each side. once i had the inner wheel wells done, i finished off the chassis for the front end using the same diameter rod as i used for the roll cage. the A arms were scratchbuilt from smaller diameter rods, plastic sheet with scratchbuilt brackets. bolts from r b motion were used for detail together with a used electric guitar string. steering rod was from a 55 chevy truck and the box from a thames panel. thanks for looking in. steve

doomcrew Posted April 28, 2010 Author Posted April 28, 2010 thanks guys. it was suggested that i did this with a jimmy flintstone chopped body, but i may do that for next time. yes i am tempted to do another one. steve
