Looking good Gary, it's coming together nicely, if you hadn't told us it was 1/43rd scale I don't think any of us would know.

Thank you Bruce & Dave....
I've added the door bars along with the small verticle bars. I had to re-build(RE-fabricate... ;D) the drivers door bars as they where a little to close to the seat. More support bars where added to the rear area also. Shock mounts will be built off of the back bar. The Dash is coming up next along with the top of the tranny tunnel. The back firewall will be fabbed then also. I'll shoot pics of all that after it's in Primer...

Looking good. The rear end really looks good. In that small scale the door bars must have been fun to do.

Thanks for the compliments folks... Here's a few update pics...Got the bed of the truck on. The white card stock that's in the pic will be removed. I'm using diamond plate on the bed floor. Cargo box's will have end plates added. A screen will take the place of the grey plastic in front of the rear window. The duel tires in the rear where made and ready to install after paint. Tire rack and shorter ramps on trailer will be fabbed next. The rear shock mounts on the car have been fabbed. The bracket for the panhard bar will be fabbed up and then this car is ready for primer... Here's a few pics...Thanks for looking in on this build....(click on pic)

Thank you Buck...it's starting to get there...
Wow! And a Hauler also It was part of the Team concept from the start Bruce. The last time I posted something on the trailer and truck was back on page one. I try to do a little on each subject as the Build(s) progress. I've been sick for the last week and Haven't been in the build mood. I'll get back on this one real soon though. Thanks for looking in folks.
