1965 Ford N950

I had bought this kit year ago from Dans Model from Romania.

I had cut the hood. This will be hinged. I also changed the resin front axle with a more stiffer one from KFS









I had added  the air and fuel lines to the chassis. It is not 100% correct but I think that it give a bit live to chassis.  The engine will be next  thing that I have to detail.

There's some nice detail there mate, look forward to seeing more as you progress.

It's going to be a "kick-ass" truck when it is done i reckon.

Ive seen these on american ebay , not cheap but good molding by the looks of it .

Yes it is not a cheap kit but I think it is worth the money. Excellent quality, easy to assembly. great surface finish. I found only on air bubble on the hole kit!

Here some pictures with the hinged hood.

That's one cool Ford in the making, a mate of mine wanted one of these would of cost close to 300 to land it here by was he up set.

 

Chassis painted and Guardsman Blue cab

Nice nice nice! Are you keeping the 10 stud rims on the drive or going with spiders like the front?

No it will get Spyder all around. I'm not sure if I use 5 spoke or 6 spoke design. Also the tires are to modern. I hope that I find some old Ertl or amt tires somewhere in my parts box

Spyders and the old Ertl/Amt tyres will set it off really well.
