This is really looking good David! Can't wait to see more! Might do something similar on my next one. Hope you don't mind me stealing some of your ideas..

Still working on this one. Don't seem to get very much time lately. I did change it up a bit . Different wheels/tires, roughed it up a bit. Wasn't real happy with the satin finish I got when I painted it gloss black and then it rained! Think this will be kind of a shop truck/hot rod. Sorry for the photo quality, got to work on that.  Thanks!

Rick :)

Got some paint on build #2 today. Taking David's advice to build one close to box stock. Using Mission Models paint as much as possible on this one.  Body done up in Pearl Root Beer Brown.

Mine is still sitting on the bench waiting for me to get back to it. I had a scheduled 3-day weekend, which turned into a 4-day weekend because storms in the area flooded some roads and school was cancelled.  However, one of my students left me with a small surprise and I have been down with the flu all weekend.  Hope to get this crud abated and back to the bench soon.
When I win the Powerball I will switch to the real ones.

Thanks everyone for posting these builds.
I enjoyed looking at all the different variations completed using the same kit. Excellent workmanship by everyone involved in the project.

Very impressive lineup of builds so far! I need to get back to mine. David, that truck should have been designed by you, but I guess you weren't quite old enough at that time.

Well, as sometimes happens, the Candy Deep Red pickup got messed up. It all started with a small set of mirrors that I made that I thought would look better on this Street Rod version. The mirrors themselves came out good but in the final stages of the build when they were to be installed, one of the mirrors literally jumped out of it's tiny hole that I had drilled for it. It stuck to the door below. Then I tried to fix that boo-boo on the door. Then it got worse. Then I tried to fix it more. . . that just made it even more "worser". I ended up just buffing all of the paint off, re-prepping and starting over!! Here's the fresh repaint job. Sometimes in model building, as in life, a minor thing can end up becoming a big hairy deal that more or less ruins everything!!!!

Now your building like me!!!! LOL

A VERY loose mockup of my former rat rod, now officially a gasser. I just couldn't bring myself to installing a blown 427 SOHC in a rat rod. From the paint tip by David B., I used Rustoleum metallic on the scoop and injector. Thanks, David!
