Can-Con Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) Wow, almost a hole day and only one comment? I guess either I pissed off a lot of people or I posted this in the wrong section. Maybe it's time for a Rod & Custom section??

BeakDoc Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 That’s beautiful. I dig the period-correct, stock look of the paint scheme and the lime green wheels. Very classy and understated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude Thibodeau Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Hi Steve! Very nice, the colour combo is perfect. And the green wire wheels are a nice contrast. CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoffman Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Great job! Very clean build. The engine looks great. Love the plug wire boots on the plugs and distributor. They really make it look like 1-1. -TIM- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outstanding job you did on this one! Are the door handles out at the chrome platers?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modelbuilder Mark Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Turned out nice, I missed the completion post, not as much time online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Add me to the list of people that missed this one! I know it's my problem, no-one else's, but when I see Model Truck I think of Kenworths and Peterbilts, not Model A pickups. The only time I remember to look in here is when a hot rod truck pops up as the first post when I get online. I suspect I might have missed a number of cool hot rod trucks as a result. And yes, I love your truck! In the WIP section I said I wouldn't change a thing and my opinion hasn't changed. I haven't even opened my Tudor kits so it is neat to see what you can do with the wheels in that box. This would look right at home in an Aussie rod run.

I'm nearing the finish line of the RPU version, hope it turns out half as nice as yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Very nice truck. As I’ve been playing with Model As lately, and already have two roadster pickups, I’d been thinking about a hard roof version too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
