That’s some tidy surgery Paul, I’m always impressed with your subtle modifications to your builds!

That turned out great Greg!

Had to try lol

Playing with plastic again! Trying out some potential next builds. The cabriolet/roadster might be a go.

Thank you, it’s not to hard to get a decent stance from the truck. Wanna sell the bike lol?

Impressive build of a tough kit, I have a set of the decals stashed away to possibly go on a foose pickup.

Well at long last I have completed my version of the venerable 29 closed cab pickup, inspired by a tribute thread but chose not to go the 80’s billet rod way. I started with the 1982 “Hot Rod” version. Having built a couple of the early Revell kit line from the 60’s I know I was in for some fiddly parts and assembly, but that’s never scared me off from these vintage molds. Check the build thread for the details. The finished pics are below with some additional along the way pics featuring my original oob build from the rat rod series. Thanks for looking!

Thought this might help for your weathering Len. Or at least give you some ideas, /end thread hijack!

Just about ready to wrap it all up, headed for a thread in under glass very soon. I’ll leave you with comparison photos of the first one I built all stock height and pretty much out of box! Remember kids instructions are just someone else’s version of the vision in the box.

I’m down for any 32 build!

And I’m over here doing the reverse, putting a 31 clip on a 29 truck cab lol! Nice work @Kit Karson

Thank you Bob, it wasn’t an overly difficult thing, not like @NOBLNG and his hood and trunk hinges!

Neat little project there Greg, the detail you’re adding is awesome.

Thanks David, overall I’m pretty pleased with how well it’s worked! I have one of these kits left unopened in my stash( and now they have rereleased it( I only want the Chopper))and there are things I would change on the next one! The temptation to use the new 29 roadster chassis is pretty high on that list. but that being said this one is inching closer to completion.

Well this detail might have been a little overkill as I hadn’t planned to make it that detailed, functioning door handles?? Well for most people the pet peeve of these older kits is the doors don’t stay closed, so let’s make em function! All I did was drill the door hole open and use the kit supplied door handles and add a styrene tab to the back to hook the door frame.
