| 1980's GMC Quad Cab
Well, started yet another build... This one will have one of Fungi's awesome chassis, but for now im using a crawlerx 5.5 for mockup! Nothing is mounted yet, so no the bed is NOT mounted crooked, its was for mockup reasons. But im pretty psyched to see where this goes. |

This ones looking to be a good project! Is that a resin cast cab? I've never seen it in a kit before.

Looks great, I really like old boxy pick ups. I presume you have worked with resin before??? You almost always have to soak it to remove the releasing agent left on the body from the resin casting process....most use Wesleys bleach white. Just curios as to where you purchased this body?

Very cool Smoke, thanks for the info. I have plenty of styrene builds under my belt and have worked with resin parts ,but never a body like this. It is definitely a whole different creature to work with, but they make some really cool parts/bodies in resin.
