Ray_Ray Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Hey guys, since being out of the hobby for so long, I thought I'd try another quick build before diving off into something where I'll be doing a whole bunch of cutting or customizing. I thought I might try a little detail work on this build. I tried my first ever attempt at plug wires, not the best work I know, I think some are a little longer than they should be and the boots are a tad too long but it'll work for now. Also, I got some color on the body last night, I'm pretty happy with how it's turning out so far. Any input welcome, tips and criticism as well. Thanks for looking!!!

Modlbldr Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Looks real good so far. Nice clean building. Yes, the plug wires are a bit long. The plug wires should have some droop. Keep it up. What are your plans for cutting on the next one? Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your plans for cutting on the next one? Later- Nothing too extreme yet. I'd really like to build some pro street style pickups, so just cutting up the rear frame for stuff like that. And eventually get into some body modifications on some things. I also have a 359 Peterbilt that I want to lower and stretch quite a bit.

bogger44 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Welcome back to the hobby James. Looks like your off to a good start, I like the purple. That Willys is a good kit, and choice, for getting back into building. Oh yeah, I love your avatar! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
