Gary Chase replied to A64B's topic in Model Truck Show Room
That’s a great looking build, love the tire/wheel choices, adds to the timely look of the truck. -
Any progress on this build?
-
Thanks Brian, I don’t judge, so I don’t what they look for. Thank you for the kind words.
-
That does sound fun, maybe this year I can participate in the show.
-
Thank you sir, maybe some day I will take a couple of these trucks to a show. Problem is, I can see every mistake and I know everyone else will see them as well.

Just finished this build today. Nearly every part was modified/ replaced with 3D print or scratch built.
-
Hey, how are ya, thanks for looking, may do this kit bash again in a custom road truck.
-
This build was wrapped up a few weeks ago. It is a kit bash with the Watkins 925 and the Malone race truck. I used the long hood (15mm longer than stock) and the twin blower/ twin turbo V12 engine. The turbos were exchanged for larger turbos and re-plumbed for an intercooler. Frame stretch, hand built aluminum exhaust, custom fuel tanks, fabricated headache rack, grill was cut out and replaced with a screen, custom interior, aftermarket tires, and cast mirrors.

Thank you, yup wish I could drive a truck that nice

Finished this truck a few months back, I started with the AMT Watkins kit. Built a double drop trailer with similar treatment that the truck has with fenders, colors and tires/wheels.
-
That’s a fantastic build, well done
-
Sharp looking truck, like the single axle flat bed.
-
That looks really good, well done.
-
Thank you very much

I like all those paint jobs, the white, gold and orange is really cool. Not sure what happened, but it’s cool.
