Default New Project f-350

I know its 1/6, But I have had it in the attic for over a year, So it was time to open up the box and pull it out.. It has working headlights, tail, cab, and turn signals... Everything is well detailed, even the center console moves... I have started the tubing, but I have alot more left to do..

Here is a few pics of the progress, and what I want it to look like... Let me know what you think....

I personally like the Harley paint job on it. Never been a big fan of those type of flames.

Can't wait to see the build.
Nice cage work so far.

Airbags look sick.....







































































Like go in the bathroom and end up puking all over myself.

Thumbs up

Looks like that rig has some huge potential. I do not care for the Hella Huge lift deal though. I think with the right pair of tires and maybe some wheelie king axles that thing would be the chit.

Thanks guys, I am going a different route with the truck... Im not going to make it look like that airbagged one.. It was too tall for my liking.. And I didnt plan on making it that tall anyway..

The body looks a little out of proportion. But it's not too noticable. I would go paint some of the engine, crome and silver. You sould keep the paint, and get some more scale tires and axles. Leaf springs maybe

Just some things to think about.

That will make a nice Scale truck. I would take the time to paint the details under the hood also. Just take your time and do it by hand.
