Nick Winter Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 Saga of the '68-'72 Chevy is Done, Just a simple build, bringing me back to my roots of model building, getting back to the type of stuff I used to love to build. Used parts from 68 through 72 AMT & MPC Chev trucks. My newest creation is in the bed of the truck, I finally figured out how to get it to work properly. Story/theme behind the truck is that it was ordered by the dealership new in '68 and over the years had it's fair share of abuse as the parts department truck, in the mid 80's the dealership has there body shop take care of the rust issues (Ohio dealership) and body work and the service department takes care of replacing it's heart with a GM Performance Parts 454 Crate motor, now it's a publicity truck that only takes care of over stocked parts.

Nick Winter Posted April 2, 2013 Author Posted April 2, 2013 Hey Nick that looks great! Is that the one you got from Mitch? Yes it is Steve, Mitch is a great guy, bought a lot of stuff from him over the years. Very cool............love all the Delco boxes. Thanks Alan, they took a while to figure out, but were worth the glued fingers in the end.
