happy grumpy Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 this is the Revell Chevy 65 ? I think. I built it a few years back. I removed the bed and scratch built this one out of evergreen styrene. this was the fate of several of these working trucks when exposed to snow and salt and living here in Canada, these were a very common sight. the drum and jerry can were added later. The weathering was made using different techniques and some of them came from here so here is a tribute to those who willingly share their tips on this forum. In fact, I got a lot of inspiration from a lot of you guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
