activexp Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Another re-box of an old kit from 18 years ago but is none the worse for that with nice clean mouldings and virtually zero flash. Assembly begins with the engine. Next the floorpan/chassis. The custom wheels. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

activexp Posted April 20, 2017 Author Share Posted April 20, 2017 A little more progress on this one. Cab interior completed. Body painted with Tamiya TS-50 Mica Blue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activexp Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 Interior tub and windows fitted into the cab. The tailgate, rear fenders and lights were a little tricky as they have to fitted in a specific order. I removed the chrome from the front end as it's painted body colour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thud4444 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Well this is a first, that's MY truck. Same year and everything. Mine looks like this. I can't get pics of my actual truck right now. The in-laws are borrowing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activexp Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 Very nice. All it needs is lowered suspension and a rear spoiler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activexp Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 Getting towards the end of this build now. I used the wonderful chrome pen for the headlight reflectors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those headlights look fantastic. Very realistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
