This started as the Cameo kit. The frame and bed were lengthened, and it was fitted with Scenes Unlimited 8 bolt wheels. The bumpers were scratch built and the rear window was changed to the small version. When the original 283 blew up, it was replaced by a Pontiac V8 from a GMC, and when that one blew up it was replaced with a dual quad 421, because why not?

Wow! Love the subject, a old 3/4 ton workhorse.  The weathered  period factory original paint color is perfect! Those  stout bumpers mean business! Great job!

AS always I love your weathering on your builds. You can almost hear the body rusting from here.

Kewl!  I love the long bed stretch!   I have a couple of 1950 Ford pickups on my bench right now,  but beware!  I have a '58 Chevy pickup idea that's been screaming to get out of my head!

Cool build.  Nice weathering.  Who is your source for the tread plate used for the bumpers?
