Had this kit since 1970 time to build it!

Re contouring the cab a bit and cut out the windshield to run an oval from one of the T.D. kits. Changed the wheels and tires which are made up of the original AMT backers, MPC rear axle stubs and outer rims from the AMT 70 Coronet and parts box L60's rear and F70's front. Did the rear axle 100% chrome and on the front eliminated the steel axle from the front axle. Also lowered the stance a tad.

I thought the bed was way too long. Now to channel the cab about 3mm over the chassis. Paul
