    Thanks everyone, not quite done yet. Waiting on some badges and new chassis but wanted to post the body. Definitely kept me busy learning as I went. Will post in other threads later.

    Your attention to detail is truly amazing. So hate to tell you, but you forgot the “taco lean”.:D

    BTW The slightly darker color is probably due to all the color sanding you did / and or different clear coat.

    Actually didnt color sand with it being metallic. Just did 1500, 2500, 3000 on clear coat. Could be that my paint is almost 4yrs old. It's all good tho and thank you. :hattip:

    It's so good it looks like you went into photoshop, copied your truck and shrunk it!

    That was my goal. A few things I just couldn't get or do to exact scale but it's real close. Thanks :hattip:

    Well it rains and or snows up here almost all winter long. Tried building and selling Meso ultimate mirrors and BTLM tails but only sold 1 of each. So this is something completely new to me to keep me busy. This one should be done in a few weeks. Next winters project is on it's way. :D

    Plus I like to challenge myself to see if I can do it.
