C cab hot rod

Recommended Posts

Started this 1/18 scale 1929 C cab panel truck hot rod a few weeks ago. It will be over 13 inches long when finished and painted in KC Chiefs colors.

Use the left over frame from a Peterbilt 378 kit and the rear end section of a 1/18 scale Muscle Machine coupe die cast toy.

Also using the Hemi engine, rear and front clip and tires from the Muscle Machine coupe.  Eventually I will bend aluminum tube headers for the engine, build a front glass frame and install the roof.

The body is completely scratch using sheet styrene and the bench seat is craved from balsa with plastic half round inserts to simulate a tuck and roll.  I will coat the balsa with many coats of gloss poly before shooting it gloss black.

Anyway, will post more as I work on it.
