1950 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup - Suzie Q

[Duddly01]

I finally finished the build of a 1950 Chevy 3100 under my wife’s specs so I of course had to name it Suzie Q. As with all my builds working LEDs for headlights, tail lights and gauge lights. The LED coin cell battery is hidden as the spare under the truck bed. My son has a Sinclair gas pump globe as a light in his room that is the same design as the bed slat sign to tie it to him as well. Detailed engine compartment with plug wires in correct firing order, heater lines and wiring. 
 

And one shot in the sun

Another great build there Donald, I love how most of your builds are inspired within your family unit. Awsome detail and finish as usual, really well done. 

Cheers,

Very nicely done Donald.  Great looking color and all the detail work looks top notch.  The working lights are always a Great touch.  Super build.
