Joker Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Perfect ! Those ol' Scouts were rust magnets. For some reason I remember them with a CB antenna aerial whip with a grungy tennis ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyjim Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Certainly not my style, but the weathering looks extremely well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo64nova Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Nice job on the Scout. I know with weathering that its very easy to over do it but yours looks very natural and not over done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry P. Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Dr. Cranky would be proud! The rust perforations around the wheelwells and along the rockers are very well done. And I love the missing trim strip pieces aith the mounting holes exposed. Nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaina Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Thanks everyone for the great comments. I had a lot of fun with this one. Platerpants, I think I only paid $15 for it at a hobby shop in Omaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
