Finally finished this one. It's done as a late 50s - early 60s mild custom. Hope you guys like it.

Great build I love those old trucks!

Can't go wrong with a first-gen Effie, especially this nice! Not to wild about the color, but on this one, with the scallops, it works.

Realy nice period look . Are those the scallops from the Revellogram '58 Thunderbird?

These scallops are included in the kit Harold and getting them on was like picking fly poop out of pepper:P

Thanks, a compliment from a builder of your caliber is always appreciated Chuck. The color looks nicer in full sunlight.

Thanks and I love the old trucks too. This body style just seems to have a "pulled together" look that other trucks of the era don't have.

All I can say is WOW!!! It came out looking very clear and sweet. Love it.

[davyou5]

Thanks and the moons came from the AMT double dragster kit. I knew as soon as I saw them that they would be going on this truck.

Hey there Oldschool! I was wondering about this one and it was worth the wait! Nice build over all and very clean. Great work!

I think it's perfect! The color, scallops, Moon discs. I liked it right away, and your choice to go with the Moon discs was the right one. Cool!

[W-409]

I like those Full Moons too, this Pickup looks very good also. Colour is perfect, and that paintjob looks awesome. Have you painted those scalloops...? Engine looks good too, flathead is just perfect choice to this one and white wall tires are looking good too. Thank you for sharing!

[Draggon]

That's prety ccol. I love the 3/4 rear view. The caps look great on it!

[rustybill1960]

Very nice! Love it!

[oldscool]

Now that is cool Gerald.I know what you mean about the decals,lot's of patience putting them on.I don't recall reading what the color is on the truck,can you enlighten me on that ? Did the discs fit on the truck kits rims or did you have to use the rims and tires from the AMT kit.

Sure George. The color is good old Testors spray can Copper enamel that has been around as long as I can remember. The moons were literally a snap fit in the kit wheels with no mods at all. The tires are also OOB.

Thanks for the response.
