this builkd involved my firts ever top chop , chenneled body and bed , and a custom made grille of the original front

i wanted a recogniseble grille but still fenderless

painted it gloos black back then

i actually never ever tried the hair-spray and salt technique and i used this model as a test case ..

this is what i came up with today , put some weathered numbers on the doors

i want to give it a nicer exhaust / wheels and dress up the engine a bit better
