Hi

Here is a 1941 Plymouth that i have converted from sedan to pickup. Making it look like an old work truck who have some custom work done.

Early stage

That's so cool. Very nicely "weathered" too. The aged effect is really well done.

I'm working on a -36 Ford Coupe which is getting a similar body treatment. B)

Thanks for showing yours!

That is very cool looking Plymouth so far! I like that idea a lot, it's a bit different than all other '41 Plymouths! I like that weathering too, it looks very good and real. Those steelies are looking very good too on this and that decal (?) on the driver's door. Looks good, can't wait to see more of this build... B)

I love it! Nice to see something different and great job utilizing the Plymouth body in this build.

Your weathering technique is excellent. I'd love to see a little tutorial on how accomplish the overall effect.

GAH! Dontcha just hate it when someone comes up with the same idea as you and then bats it clean outa the park? :D Wow. I REALLY like this. I guess I'll have to come up with something different.

Hi

Thanks for the compliments :D

I`m actually going to use the standard flathead six. Will try to make a dual carb.intake and maybe some sort of header.

Did this today.

Made the bed floor out of balsa strips painted and weathered for a worn look. The will come some dirt and grime along the sides and in corners.

This is going to be a very nice model.

I did one in 1993 but it is no way as cool as yours.

I started with a badly warped body, bed from plastic sheet, bed cover and fenders from the Monogram '40 Ford and Fujumi wheels.
