AMT Chopped 57 Chevy pick up..

E.R., this build's progress is looking so great!  I can't wait to see the completed kit!

Thanks,it is going well!

This  is really a treat to watch it come together

Mounted up the cab and bed to the frame and added a master cylinder,fender wells ,steering shaft as well as the radiator... shelby gt500 wallpaper

Installed the exhaust system..  

That is cool a GMC!

Even better!

Thanks!not sure!

Are you going to do something like this?

Bed looks great!

I have some walnut veneer that I thought would be good for the truck bed.So I got my T square and triangle and cut the veneer into strips.Attached them with CA and will finish them with  gloss Minwax Polycyclic  .   

Installed the engine and had to make a long driveshaft!  

Clear blue over the steering wheel thus far!

My imagination is seeing Tamiya clear blue over that chrome body. Or something.

Went with a brown interior,an interesting feature of this kit is that the front bench seat is hinged to fold forward.I guess to store things or to have access to the fuel tank should a leak or sending unit issue arrise..  

Best get out your Foster Grant sunglasses !

Boy I would hate to follow that guy down the highway on a bright sunny day!

Mocking up the the body to check for stance,it has the lowered look I was aiming for..

Instead of a V-8,I decided to use a straight 6 engine .   dollface twisted metal

Updates to follow!

I too am intrigued. 

Might be a surprise or two!

I'm not quite getting where you're headed with this but I'll be watching and find out. Build on !

Installed the differential and front axle.
