Idk, I'm thinking two tone but Idk yet... I've still got to do the drop bed and tail gate... so I've got some time to decide

motostowes · 10-24-2010, 05:12 PM

It's coming along very nicely! i love those mid 80's crew cabs, i think you have the perfect look! If i saw this for the first time i would think it's real! very nice

What ideas do you have for a color?

I haven't thought much about color yet... I will probably decide though before I finish the drop bed

motostowes · 10-25-2010, 04:31 PM

Cool, would you take any suggestions on colors because a Flat black/blue would look nice or white/blue would also look cool.

Thanks man, ill def keep that in mind, I do think I wanna two tone it though

motostowes · 10-27-2010, 05:59 PM

Yeah i agree two tone will take a long time but still a blue, black, or white would look nice! perferrably:black

Stangrocka · 12-07-2010, 01:26 AM

wow, looks good, i think this is the first clod crew cab ive seen with the correct rain gutters above the windows!! good build man

minisaba · 12-18-2010, 09:31 AM

This is looking great. I don't like the newer chevys, but this older trucks are the best in my opinion. Are you running leafs on front and rear or only rear or front? Keep the great work going.

2manyprojects · 12-18-2010, 07:30 PM

Awsome!!!!

Big Bill · 12-27-2010, 07:28 AM

I would have to agree with the two-tone group. I think with the crew cab and long bed and solid paint it would look as long as a Friday after noon.

. I cant remeber ever seeing one not two toned IDK. Oh yeah the body came out great!

blukon98 · 01-06-2014, 07:43 AM

Bringing this one back. Got the itch again. Need axles, leafs, and shocks. Gonna run on an scx-10 chassis. Anybody know what axles would be narrow enough for a nice scaley look?

indyrado4 · 01-06-2014, 08:55 AM

I'm using losi mini crawler axles on my clod turned k5. With rc4wd 1.55 wagon wheels and dirt grabbers, I use some hex spacers and get a really scale width. The tires just barely tuck inside tge fenders...

blukon98 · 01-06-2014, 09:17 AM

Might have to look into that, how would leafs mount to those axles?

Honchoforever1 · 01-06-2014, 10:44 AM

I vote rc4wd k44 axles. There kinda pricey but they are really scale and pretty tough

I'm running them on my crewcab ford

blukon98 · 01-09-2014, 03:41 PM

If anybody buys my land rover I might get a set, I've got leafs, need axles and a s**t ton of other parts but I started on the bed about an hour ago. Had to take a break... I'm such a pansy... my nerves are so bad when I do tedious things. I painted my old 1:1 and almost had a heart attack when I ran the clear coat.

blukon98 · 01-09-2014, 04:17 PM

My inspiration...
