Getting the driver ready for paint. In the prime, sand, prime rotation. Getting smooth.

You were on a roll there...wheel is perfect.

Driver is something of a departure themewise...

Great. Nice to have Butthead going along for the ride. I remember watching that when it first came out on MTV. Still makes me laugh thinking about that show.

A few more scale parts. Some parts for the firewall and battery etc. I might also change the engine. Found an original engine for it.

Right, I have been trying to think of one but I just can't think of a good one. Almost went with B&B Junk Haulers, with a bumper sticker that says We Got Junk in the Trunk! Or something similar.

Not 100% sure where I'm going with the bed. I have a sample printing right now .

Reprinted the gas tank. It was to small. Looks good now.

Well being this is an international, we decided to take out the Mercedes engine and put in the original engine. Flat head 6. Still have to finish putting it together after the rebuild.

New engine in the hole. Now I need a radiator shroud to cover up the servo.
