Re: Something I've been working on

Thanks Tim. The tires are Bridgestone Desert Duelers. I have about 6 hours in making the grill. It started off as an 83 GMC grill from the reissue of the Fall Guy truck kit. The blazer body is made from 2 different trucks. The paint is auto paint. The pin stripe is a left over piece from when I pin striped my truck. All I have left is exhaust. The fun part will be making the Y pipe...

Thanks Glenn, it's not 100%, but it's close enough for me...
