Fifty-something F1 Shop Truck

This is my fictional shop truck created from the latest release of the Revell ’50 Ford F-1 truck. I never liked the stock front (looks too English for my liking) so created a custom one that’s a little more aggressive using ’49 Ford bumperettes. It’s also been lowered all round, sits on homemade steelies and painted wide whites and runs a blown big block up front to make sure the deliveries are on time! I made some decals to finish it off.

Just had a play around with some settings to try and make my photos a bit brighter – not sure if this is better or worse though…?

I always love a mild custom job and that it has not been chopped only adds to the great looking pick up

Front end is now 100% better than stock.

Absolutely stunning Bryce - maybe the photo should look like this?

Thanks for the nice words guys! I’m glad y’all like my pick ‘em up truck.

Go for it mate – nothing terribly original there.

It’s behind the seat – bit scary if you smoke in the car I reckon!

Nice work on the installation there Terry. That picture is kind of scary though!

......Nice build though Bryce, I'm really digging those decals too .

Very nice build Bryce, well done mate.
The paint looks flawless.

And wouldn't the world be a boring place if we all agreed on everything.
It's just the 50 I don't like. It's eyes are too close together.

.........ain't nothing wrong with that

Great build as always Bryce.

Love the colour but it's way too shiney to be areal shop truck.

I'm still likin' the original front styling tho.

Thats one sick shop truck Bryce! Pure awesome-ness

An absolute thing of beauty,Bryce. I like everything about it,even the color and I'm not a green guy at all. Looks like perfect paint,too. Best to you,Bill

Thanks again for all the nice words guys...

Perfect Bryce, I think that is one of your best.
