    Lee Drennen’s AMT Chevy Titan Build Truck #1

    I sold this truck to a very good friend of mine years ago and decided to see if I could get it back. He restores farm toys so Yesterday I traded some old Farm toys for this Model. When I sold it to him I had already painted the frame and cab one color. Yesterday I painted the top of the cab Mopar Stone White and also painted the engine and installed it painted the wheels sanded the tires and added them as well.

    Yikes Lee! That came on all of a sudden.........1/25 scale I assume. Looks to be a beauty, think I'll watch this one and do you have a trailer in mind? Rick H.

      Rick. Thanks for the complement and stopping by. Yes it’s 1/25 Scale I used to build these years ago as a teenager. Thought I would get back into it. It will be pulling a AMT Fruehauf 40’ flat bed

        Work on this interior most of the day. I hand painted the interior when I was young this would have took about a hour as I remember it’s fun getting old

          Lovely cab but that bed looks a bit disappointing.

              Karl. The bed will never be seen so why waste time on it I’ve built these for over 40 year and never detail the bed because I think it’s a waste of Model time if not seen

                I'm saying the kit part looks dissapointing, not the lack of work on it, I never had a sleeper look like that......
