Eric N. Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 I didn't clean it very well. Back in the day I thought I was really doin somthing. Boyd's paint,don't know what clear. working arm rests, and that killer costom bed cover! Of corse it's Pro/street! Molded the rear roll pan-W/WOOD PUTTY! And decals from a Revell VW. This was the first one I "rubbed out" W/Novus.-Still a lot of peel. Don't mind the wax in the lines-It has a splatter painted base too! OHH,AHH First model I entered a show with. I think I got third place. I was hooked! Like totally man!
kalbert Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Whoa that thing takes me back a bit! Looks like it jumped out if an early '90s Truckin' mag!
Jordan White Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Dunno about everyone else, but that's my favorite time period for custom cars and trucks. I love the monochrome look, the bright colors, and the billet/body color wheels. Yours is a great example of that time period!
1930fordpickup Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Looks great. I loved that fad as much as many others.
tooltas Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 it has that look of 90's street truck befor they started cutting and bagging them I like them too old school and newschool custom truck
Tom Geiger Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 I think it looks great. Plus it's a piece of your personal modeling history that should always have a place of honor on your shelf!
kilrathy10 Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 Yep, back in the '90's you could get model cars and trucks for $5 a kit...THAT's what I miss...Great job on this one....It's still a pretty good build....
slusher Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Very nice looking truck. l have some of that same color.
PappyD340 Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 I don't see anything wrong with it NICE truck Eric!!
joeym Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 I agree. It looks fantastic. Or should I say "Totally Awesome"!!!!
Eric N. Posted June 10, 2013 Author Posted June 10, 2013 Wow, It lives! Thanks, for all the kind words folks. Eric
JM485 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Wow, very nice build. If you happen to remember, where did you get those rims?
Eric N. Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 Wow, very nice build. If you happen to remember, where did you get those rims? Josh, I think I got them from a Revell 55 Chevy pro sportsman drag car-Carpenter?? or somthing like that. Thanks,Eric
Austin T Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 What a throwback! Kinda reminds me of the revell/Hot Rod models from back in the 80's.
Jeff B Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Great build, and thank you for that great topic title! Reminds me of an old issue of Car Modeler with the Eddie Van Halen-themed pickup. Bleh.
Blown03SVT Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Great build, and thank you for that great topic title! Reminds me of an old issue of Car Modeler with the Eddie Van Halen-themed pickup. Bleh. It was SAE... not the new SAM. First model mag I ever bought at the tender age of 16
