randx0 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 nice work so far. any idea what kit those rims are from?
RodneyBad Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Dang!! Bed looks Awesome. Paint looks Great. Cool work....
Guest Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Looking nice Bruce! Looks much better as a short bed! I've always wanted to do the same thing with the '72 GMC. I just gotta come up with a tail gate. Randy,those wheels were in various MPC kits. One kit that I know for sure that has them is the little Datsun California Step Side. I have one that I'm restoring.
charlie8575 Posted May 14, 2011 Posted May 14, 2011 Nice job making that a shortbed. Looking forward to more. Charlie Larkin
Aaronw Posted May 14, 2011 Posted May 14, 2011 Except for the color it looks a lot like a truck a friend had (his was blue & white). Those short bed GMCs are nice, funny how lopping off 18" of bed they go from work truck to "muscle car".
Space Cowboy Posted May 17, 2011 Author Posted May 17, 2011 Got the engine and grill done................................... Hope to have more soon.......................
Chuck Most Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 Oh, yeah, loving this one! Looking nice Bruce! Looks much better as a short bed! I've always wanted to do the same thing with the '72 GMC. I just gotta come up with a tail gate. Roger- I believe Bandit Resins does a GMC wideside tailgate. I've got a half-dead '72 GMC kit with a cut down Chevy bed somewhere, I tried foil copying the GMC letters off the hood and transfering them to the tailgate, if I recall, it didn't work too well!
Modlbldr Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 Bruce- The work looks good on this one. The bed shortening went well and the grille detail is sharp. Nice looking truck. Later-
Space Cowboy Posted May 19, 2011 Author Posted May 19, 2011 Got it foiled but it still needs some repair......................... More coming soon.............................
Space Cowboy Posted May 20, 2011 Author Posted May 20, 2011 Got it finished and moved to Under Glass.............................
