1950 Chevy 3100 Pickup from AMT *FINISHED*

Hello Chad!

Now that's a funky paint scheme! Lookin' really good!

Thanks for sharing and have a nice day

It looks like the 3d printer served you well in this build. Nicely done, lovin the wheels and wide white walls. The concept of 235 six with quick change rear end messes with whats left of my brain cells.

I completed the 1950 Chevy 3100 Pickup from AMT.

Dear ctruss53.  That is a fine looking pickup truck.  The side opening hood is excellent!  Thank you for the great photos of this super build!.

Nice job!  Lot's of great technique in that build.

Thank you everyone.

The 3D printed parts are from Iceman Collections, and the seats are from Juan4You on ebay.

I wish I knew how to 3D print. I have been unsuccessful at learning that so far.

Very interesting color combination. Well done both build and paint wise.   

Stay safe.

Very nice!  Very clean!

Very, very nice! Love the trick details, clean work, and color scheme.

Well!

      It looks to me like you wanted a well Built eyecatcher. You certainly got it with the color combo. I like it that the paint sets it apart.

Thanks again everyone.

A few of you mentioned the details.  There are other minor details that you may have missed as well.

Example: The lower cab corners behind the fenders and behind the doors are supposed to be seperate panels. But I filled in the panel lines and smoothed the cab.

Example: There is a ridge down the center of the hood. I removed that and made the hood smooth as well.

Not only did I add some details, I removed some minor ones for a cleaner look as well.

Thank you again for the compliments.

Ctruss53:

      Actually sir, you did the trick a big service by filling those seams and the simplest thing you did was remove the ridge from the hood. That application at certain angles gives the truck longer, lower profiles.

Thank you.

I recently brought it to a Gold/Silver/Bronze show here over the weekend. I put it in the Truck class.

There was a lot of competition. Several trucks got bronze and silver awards. I was the only truck that got a gold.
