OldTrucker Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Another started kit that spent years in the back of the closet waiting for it's return to the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leafsprings Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 All the hard work is done, and done very well. Getting close to adding all the gingerbread! Luckily, AMT offered us kits in the early 70's that resemble trucks from the 60's, my favorite era.

landman Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Well, it looks like it won't be on the bench too long and a looker too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trick my mixer Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 The red and black paint job are perfect for that REO. Want to see it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTrucker Posted December 2, 2021 Author Share Posted December 2, 2021 A little more done on the chassis. Finish up the interior next. Been down in the back pretty bad making sitting at the bench painful. Unfortunately no way to fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTrucker Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 Thanks guys. Don't know how much longer I can keep building. Some days the tremor in my left hand is so bad I have to clamp a part in a clothespin and hold it with the side of my hand against the bench to paint it. Assembling the mirrors is going to be a challenge!LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
