Well she is all done. I will tell the story again for those that don't know. I am using this build for two purposes. The first is as a give away build for the Goodguys Model Contest in Puyallup this year. The way it works is you leave with another builders truck and it is random draw so nobody knows ahead of time what's up. I feel like a winner either way. If I get another builders Truck that will be one more for the museum. If I am the only one that shows with a truck I bring this home and I am a winner. So I can't lose.

The second reason for the build is to support Bobby Boggs at "The Mad Modeler". They are having a forum project that is "100 Years of Chevrolet". I let this fill that spot also. Thank you Bobby great idea for a project (Wish I would have thought of it).

The build is pretty much box stock with some spark plug wires, boots and wire looms. The paint is Dulpi-color Root Beer Metallic and Black Metallic. The bed is hand painted wood. Wheels are kit with a black wash and valve stems added. The nose was lowered 3 scale inches. It is supposed to be a driver so I didn't want to be to radical with it. Any way here it is.
