Steve_L Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 These are pictures of my 1988 Chevy Custom Pickup. I keep a supply of snap kits on hand to provide an occasional "slump-buster/morale-booster" project. But this time I chose an inexpensive 1988 Chevy Pickup Promo I bought for $8 at a model car show. I slammed the chassis, added Pegasus Chrome Rims/white wall tires and covered the body with Spaz Stix Candy Gold over a Silver Base. I cleared it with Rustoleum 2x Gloss clear and polished that with pads and Meguires Ultimate polish. Some detail painting, a custom bed cover, bare metal foil and a custom license tag finished up the low drama/high fun build I was after. Enjoy!

wrecker388 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Nice, but looks odd without mirrors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_L Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Wrecker388 -- Good point, I guess. I just looked at many similar 1988 Chevy pickup promos on EBay, and none of them have mirrors. If you will supply me the mirrors I need, I'd be glad to install them.
