Tbill Posted September 22, 2020 Great looking build, you really captured the look. Love the subtle touches, like the fuel stains and such. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vincen47 Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) Great job with this one, as expected. It has that elusive balance of looking realistically used, but not overdone. I like the fact that it has the holes in the bumper for the fog lamps, but being a no-frills fleet truck, they left them out.

My thought on the bumper, since it was the shiniest part on the truck was that it was a recent replacement after the old one was damaged. While the new one came with holes, new lights weren't in the budget. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every dent, scrape, or odd part adds history and life. Makes builds unique. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
