crazyjim Posted June 27, 2018 Posted June 27, 2018 My COE is done. The resin cab is almost 1/4" thick in places. No wonder I don't like resin. Box is scratched with '50 Chevy fenders. Pearl Ex antique gold covers everything.
cobraman Posted June 27, 2018 Posted June 27, 2018 I like it ! Seems like something out of the ordinary from you . Looks cool !
crazyjim Posted June 27, 2018 Author Posted June 27, 2018 Thanks Ray. This is maybe the 3rd or 4th resin I've ever built and it's the last. I don't like how thick these things are.
cobraman Posted June 27, 2018 Posted June 27, 2018 Some resin is much worse than others as I'm sure you know. I have had some that was no thicker than a kit body and others that weighed a ton and had to be trimmed with a chisel.
crazyjim Posted June 27, 2018 Author Posted June 27, 2018 I thought the body would be much better since I bought it from a very reputable caster.
DeeCee Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 MAN!! That is beautiful, absolutely love it... and the color is perfect !. might have to cut something up and make one myself..
crazyjim Posted June 30, 2018 Author Posted June 30, 2018 Thanks Dale. It's actually a '38 GMC body from Jimmy Flintstone. The box is scratchbuilt with '50 Chevy fenders.
mchook Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 This truck looks great! I know what you mean about the thickness on this cab, the one I built was the same way. I love the 40 Ford headlights, that's what I did with mine too.
slusher Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Gorgeous model and great finish and color choice Jim!!
1930fordpickup Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 looks great Jim. The cheaper they are the thicker they are for some reason.
