|  Ever had a body that just never seems to die?
I started with a Parma 1957 Chevy Pick up body a few years ago on my scaler.   In its second incarnation it had an interior, drop bed, and a mildly weathered look.   The third incarnation gave the truck a new primered hood and flat bed.   The latest version has the body narrowed and slightly dovetailed at the front to fit on a Cliff Climber. The body is getting old and really showing some wear now.   Any of you guys have a body like this that you just seem to keep redoing over and over?

That thing looks sweet. I kinda wish you still had the original box intact with mods to match the front clip, rither way, it has a lot of character still, and i dig it. The broken windshield is a nice touch.

I think ctrwannabe wins, his body is pretty crazy, it flaps in sections when the wind blows. |
