Well this started out to be an OOB build with just a little engine detailing. The more I got into it the more things I wanted to improve. The paint is Testors Aztec Opaque Turquoise with Aztec clear. The roof, grill and bumpers are Tamiya gloss white, decanted and airbrushed. I have not yet glued the hubcaps on since I want to make or find some dog dish style originals maybe.

Thanks for looking, comments welcome.

Beautiful truck, very nice color choice.

Can you get some shots of the interior? It looks like you've done some detailing in there, but we can't see it.

BTW, I think yours looks 100x better than the ugly box art truck. They would sell a LOT more if they'd used a truck like yours to sell it instead of that.

Thanks Patrick, thanks Chris. Here are a couple of the interior as it went together. Also a better shot of the engine compartment.

Great looking Show Room build. Your extra efforts on the detailing adds a great deal of realism.

That's a bit of a stretch in my mind considering some of the builds I see on here, but hey, I do appreciate the enthusiasm. Thanks All !

Hey, I just noticed - how come the wheel caps are chrome on one side and white on the other? Couldn't decide, huh?

Both look good. 

Well seen! I didn't notice that until I read it. Good question ;) I like the white one better :D 

 

I like this Pickup. The colors go well together. The detailing under the hood are well done. Nice one!
