taaron76 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I wanted to try something different and the only unfinished model I had spare was a 1984 NASCAR #44 Piedmont Chevy driven by Terry LaBonte. I transplanted the front clip, motor and suspension and it married up pretty good with the '53 Ford F100. This was my first truck, but I learned a lot about trucks during this build. To me, they are much more complicated than cars... at least it felt like that to me. It was a fun build, thanks for looking. Tim More coming in the next post... Lots of pics.
