    One Down One to Go

    Yeah , I would think you're right Pup , only thing is in the first two ref pics it looks like that cable is anchored to the cab roof . The military version looks like the cables are just run to the last tie down hooks on the bed . Like I said Rufus , Bubba , Daryll and Coop built the thing so...

    Thanks Pup , thanks Rhino , if you look closely at the ref pics the boom appears to be just held against a piece of angle iron by a rounded strap with four bolts . Then there's a cable that goes from the top of the boom to somewhere in the back of the truck , is there a winch back there to raise...

    Decided to go with the already built Italeri M32 boom , just cut it down some . I had Rufus , Darryl and Coop give it an OSHA Redneck inspection and it's good to go . Still want to goop some more super glue at the boom bases to replicate some mushy welds .

    Thanks guys , here's the mystery field mod . I took the boom from Italeri's M32 kit , or maybe I'll scratch one or just cut this part down . A guy in Alaska has a G506 bone yard . He has no idea who made the conversion or for what purpose it was used for . His guess is Alaskan DPW/road...

    Beautiful build Rich !!! Cork and spackle/plaster absorb paint at different levels and tones making for some very interesting natural patterns . Not saying you should not have used a clear coat , just saying . Try it on some test cork and spackle bits .

    One Down One to Go

    I had more eye surgery on the 10th this past Thursday , so the intricate small work on the truck is on hold till the cloudiness in my left eye clears up . However the build needs concrete parking lots/driveways so I tackled that , it's large enough to work on . Disclaimer : This is not my...

    Pup , this is one extremely detailed kit . You literally build it from the frame up just like in the Chevy factory . Lotsa small intimidating parts . The good news is the fit is amazingly good . I was worried about the frame and wheel base being straight/square/level . Only minor eyeballing was...

    One Down One to Go

    More progress . The silver hydrolic arms , the wheels and the connection between the bucket and frame may look a little crooked/off but that;s cuz nothing is glued yet .
