[airlessride]

Well guys first off im really enjoying this forum and the kool builds ive been reading and figured

i'd jump in after a long time off and start up again. For this model im not realy sure where its headed im

just havin some fun and practice. i started out with a italeri 378 pete and bought most of the resin from porky

to start me off. In the past 2 days ive managed to get a little done the unltra roof i did cut down and add a piece

of scrap to tie in the day cab a bit more. mainly just cleaning up and straightening everything before i start

glueing. The stacks i will definetly get a little thinner tubing for the 8 inch look, i have already stared on

the texas bumper as well as the bow tie drop visor, the truck is also drop all around to eliminate some wheel gap. still alot more to go. cant wait to see it finished lol... have a good one

Thanks Eric, me to im not realy sure where im going with it, i was thinking a pop maybe since i have a trailer i may be starting on.

as far as colors go im thinking since i do autobody and paint for a living i can get free samples/ oz's of paints so House of kolor brandy wine for the lower half fenders/frame and a beige metallic for the hood and cab.
