kilrathy10 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 (edited) I've got another one going....I got it from my good buddy Earl Miller and I'm having a blast with this one....I've been looking for one of these for a long time and I'm taking advantage of it....He had started it with a pretty good Watkins paint job, but I've got a little bigger ambitions for this one, so I will not be using that particular scheme....You can only guess what color this one will be.... That's right....Orange....I guess I'm building a fleet of these things.....As you can see, I'm building a condo for it.....I plan to build an interior for it, as well....I haven't quite figured out how I want it to be, but I'll get to it, soon enough....

b_lever1 Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Looking good my friend think I going to have to try building me one of these big boys in awhile
kilrathy10 Posted May 31, 2013 Author Posted May 31, 2013 Got a lot more done, yesterday....It's pretty close to completion, but I'm gonna have to add some sripes or something to break up the monotany that is orange paint....It looks ok, but it's too plain.....I'll fix that when I get to the old decal box....Anyway.... After the striping or whatever I decide to do, it's on to the interior of the big box....
BigBad Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) looks very nice up to this point. This is going to be one heavy mama, that little Detroit is going to have it's work cut out! Edited May 31, 2013 by BigBad
