g'day folks.

I built this for the special theme class at the Ballarat NNL which was last weekend. The theme was Black & White.

I thought of Black & White Television for some reason. Maybe I just watch too much?

Anyway, I combined both the Street machine & stock '60 Pick Up kits with some scratchbuilding and some stuff from my parts box. Camera is from an AMT Parts Pack - i've never seen anyone else use it before but it was an almost perfect match for those in period photos

In keeping with Black & White it has no colour on it - only black, white, grey and metalisers.

very nice and very interesting build! looks real enough.... is it a representation of any specific truck, or just your imagination bearing fruit?

Thanks folks.

Curt - it was inspired by photos of real Australian TV trucks I found on the interweb but maybe a bit more specialised as they tended to use planks on a roof rack as the top platform!

I think in reality you'd want a bit more suspension travel when travesing 1962 era outback roads in search of a story.

Yes, it is a perfect match and everything looks great, Fred.
