Hey Jeff, that model I built with parts from 5 different truck models. The cab and bed was from an AMT 72 chevy, the frame was made from 3 AMT 55 chevy trucks and the wheels,engine,t-case and axels are from an AMT 83 GMC...

project1971 · 03-24-2006, 12:40 AM

man those are amazing! i haven't built models in years but my son have been into it for about a year now. He just built a '75 chevy stepside he wants the real thing now.

Sheverlay · 03-24-2006, 05:11 PM

Here's the new Ertl copper/orange '67 stepside i just got in the mail today, and the other '68 Johnny Lightning i have, with one of the sets of GMP billets(actually plastic) I plan on putting on a couple of my trucks

HotRod71 · 03-24-2006, 05:36 PM

Man the bobcat is sweet. You definately got some skill at handcrafting. Keep it up.

*bisquik65* · 03-24-2006, 05:48 PM

These are all great...I have a few more as well..

*bisquik65* · 03-24-2006, 05:54 PM

Here is a wrecker i bought for the 4x4 susp of the blazer on the trailer in the 1st post on this thread

72 CustomCamper · 03-24-2006, 08:49 PM

Nice to see so many other model builders out there. I was starting to think that the dicast and pre painted stuff was killing the plastic kit market...

Chuck

**special-K** · 03-25-2006, 09:51 AM

Let`s vote......Chuck wins!!

72 CustomCamper · 03-25-2006, 11:00 PM

Thanks. I usually just build as a hobby. It took me alot of years and many many kits to get to where I'm at.Half the time I think something I build looks like crap when everybody else loves it. I guess it's like they say "You're your own worst critic"...

Chuck

**special-K** · 03-26-2006, 09:14 AM

I want to build a`72 4wd promo to add to my authentic promo collection.So,it has to look stock.The easy part is,once I match original paint,all I have to do is paint everything one color,

.That used to burn my butt when I built models as a kid when other kids didn`t even paint anything,WTF?I guess it still gets me goin`!ARGG!!!

HotRod71 · 03-26-2006, 09:39 AM

You're supposed to paint em??? I thought they was molded "in color"

72 CustomCamper · 03-27-2006, 12:03 AM

Hey special-K, there is a model show coming in up a few months not far from you. It's in Towson right off the the Balt. beltway... I think I'm going to go to it this year...

Chuck

**special-K** · 03-27-2006, 08:13 AM

Cool!Do you have any info?I`ve never been to such a thing.I`d like to see that.

*bisquik65* · 03-27-2006, 08:54 AM

I have a 69 blazer dealer promo...hehehehhe its been packed away for years.

HotRod71 · 03-27-2006, 11:56 AM

I have a good 60 or so kits still in the boxes. I am pretty sure that I don't have even one Chevy truck.

Chevy68c10 · 03-27-2006, 12:22 PM

Where did you order these from. I did a search in google , but I could only find a Place over Seas to buy from. Trying to save money on Shipping

I just got mine from this guy on ebay, expensive, yes, but I couldn't find one in a store anywhere. Don't know where the rims came from, I'd like to know too

This guy is a good seller, 100% feedback, got my truck within a week, and it was very well packaged.
