Post by: TonyK on January 10, 2020, 02:48:05 PM: Thanks to David for posting my pictures.

A flat black undercoat and gray paint that I lightly sanded to give it a worn look. Nothing special done to the model but added an ICM figure and a dog to the interior for a little fun.

Thanks for letting me add this to the community build as I had already started long before the official time. Never paid much attention to this subject but will look at it in the future to see how it should be done properly.

Not calling this one a rat rod, (this one is safe). It's just an old back yard hot rod! Chopped, channeled, shortened the bed, and some decent tires for that motor!

Post by: Lefturns75 on February 19, 2020, 03:40:21 PM: Now thats Larapin Kool!!! Reminds me of something Unk and them varmints would be seen driving in an old issue of Cartoons. Come to think of it, you could run that whole strip over again with you as Unk!!! You can round up all the Varmints you need right here on STM. Instead of "Unk and them Varmints", I could be "Dave and them Pests".

Title: Re: COMPLETED 34 Ford Pickup CBP Builds Here
Post by: john2 on March 27, 2020, 06:29:32 PM: Ok. I did a street rod. Used '32 grille, ohv engine, and the offset chrome wheels, and tires from a Revell '32 kit. Current day mirrors, and filled in the tire cavity. Lopped off front bumper. Beige interior with light blue seat belts to match the body color which is brush painted with a mix of white and blue Testors acrylics.

Half rolled up window on passenger's side, and bed floor brush painted, again with a mix of blue and orange to get a brown. Kit tool box in bed, plus modern day tool box from scratch.

Tail lights in rear fenders, along with dual exhaust and tag rounds out the back. Red's Speed Shop decals on the doors.

A really fun kit to do. Click on thumbnails for larger views.

Title: Re: COMPLETED 34 Ford Pickup CBP Builds Here
Post by: AnnieG on March 27, 2020, 07:37:17 PM: I decided to complete the kit as a wrecker. It was a lot of fun but, I thought this vehicle was really a work horse; a get-down-in-the-mud working machine. It has a few scrapes (like the crooked horn on top of the cab---ran into a low tree branch--and the scratched up front bumper) and it hasn't been washed in quite a while. Lots of tools in the bed and a few on the front seat.

(https://i.postimg.cc/2qVvK5XC/IMGP3649.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/2qVvK5XC) (https://i.postimg.cc/mh2cXkcJ/IMGP3648.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/mh2cXkcJ) (https://i.postimg.cc/kRdTCSkQ/IMGP3650.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/kRdTCSkQ)

What good is a wrecker without a wreck? So...……….I also built another '34 Ford pickup that was in pristine condition; taken out only once a week. Unfortunately, last week the driver didn't see the blue sedan in time and the rest is history. With a bent front bumper, a crooked grille, smashed in left fender and driver side door, broken front axle, bent horn, slashed left running board, and spare tire knocked off, this pampered truck isn't going anywhere next week. It's okay, the driver is fine (after a few stiches from hitting his head against the windshield and cracking the glass) although they had to bend the steering column to get him out.

Actually, the theme is her's. I only built a street rod.

These are just her 3d and 4th models ever. She worked long and hard on them. I only made suggestions and answered questions. I am very proud of her.

Looks like I might need to hang up my glue.
Title: Re: COMPLETED 34 Ford Pickup CBP Builds Here
Post by: AnnieG on March 30, 2020, 08:32:03 PM: Gosh guys. Your accolades make me blush.

I didn't realize when John first suggested I build a kit that it would be so challenging and so much fun. John was very patient through all my silly questions and now I am hooked.

Now, if you will excuse me for a while, I have some sewing and gardening to get to (I am still a girl after all).

I will return with a 1:16 Firebird!
