Re: '64 chevy 2wd to 4wd

yup, it would be a good use for a ford!

ok, wow, when it rains it pours....needed a window for the '55....
found a local guy with a HUGE collection of models, some very rare & cool kits, old Jo-hans, tractor trailers, planes, fire engines.....
snagged these 3 trucks for $35
another '55 (a stepper though) a '90 stepper, & a '59 elco. i have the '59 already, i tubbed & caged it, so you know where this one is going-up....
also have the '90 already too, but i'm glad i got another one. i built mine to resemble my 1:1 '90 step, & was almost going to tear it down & rebuild it-higher....

hmmm....
the '56 is basically just a shell, the 150 step is all there, but looks like a ford should.... (maybe "roll" this one for the back of the rollback...)
the ranchero is actually quite nice & well done-mite just leave this one alone- for now....

this made the box worth it!
another'55 cab, another nicely done '55, & a 454 SS with a monkey paint job, but it's all there (dont have a '88-'98 sb fleetside in the collection-& already a big block to boot)
thinking of either turning the '55 into a suburban (ala napco), or seeing how i got all these cabs- a '55 crewy....

he also has another box, chev dually (like the red one i just built), a '78 blazer, mike skinner goodwrench no. 3 truck, & a topless s-10 that he wants $15 for-i got a feeling i will be going over there later again....
i'm going to snatch the windshield out of the green '55 for now so i can finish the cameo, i'll replace it with the window buddy is sending me.
should have the cameo done pretty quick now....
