This is my very first weathered beater build..I used James (wondebread) write up on here for my process...Needless to say Im prob hooked....The weather has been crappy here so good builds being done so I decided to try it

Thanks everyone! Got the ride height set on it

[slammedi'am]

Got everything painted too....Decals are on and the rest of weathering and assembly has started

[crazyrichard]

nice !!

[bpletcher55]

Is this going to be box stock ex, for the wheels ,they look like the ones out of the merc kit ? If you are using them in the tires from the kit I hope you sanded them down on the out side of the back ,the white walls will spit in time if you dont ,

[slammedi'am]

Thanks everyone...Yup pretty much stock box just weathered...And you are correct on the wheels....I did sand them cause I love these tires and had em before on other stuff and had one split before...

Really neat work Shane.Can you tell me how you weathered the decals?

[slammedi'am]

All I did was use an exacto blade and scraped tillI got it where I wanted it...Then after it was applied,I dabbed(drybrushed) the last color which was the darkest color of em all
