1980 Toyota 4x4 is done. Last build for 2024.  I don’t always build hotrods. This is a close as I could get to my 1980 Toyota I ran back in the early 80’s until I rolled it on its side.  It’s an AMT snap kit that I added as many details as I could with it as it is a curbside without an engine compartment.  I replaced the lights and reworked the push bar.  Added a pipe rear bumper, trailer hitch and added lights on the roll bar to match mine and added a blanket seat cover.  Color is a mix of Tamiya paints to match the 80 Toyota blue. Enjoy.

I like that, very nicely done.

It has a low parts count but I think this is a really good kit. I built one a while back and with a little thought and TLC as you've done here it makes for a good-looking replica.
