Still stripping the brushed on (read THICK) paint but I am making progress. This never is a quick process but the time is worth it, using oven cleaner it loosens the paint but doesn't harm the plastic like sanding would.
These "94" F150 pics are from a "kit bash", I took 2 AMT 92 F 150 regular cab long bed kits, cut down on e bed, cut and grafted the cabs together and made a Supercab Shortbed, some frame part modification was needed too, still some minor sanding left and make 1/4 windows for it. I am modeling the 94 I used to own that my Dad now has, I still have graft the 2 interior tubs together. It will also be a 4x4 when it's done, I even have a set of after market 1/25 scale 33x12.50s for it cause those are what I had on the full size one. The paint job will be the 2 tone copper from the mid 90s, Ford touch up paint. Alot of this is done with a ruler that converts full size into 1/25 scale.
I also have one being converted from a XLT to an XL regular cab long bed & 4x4, modeling another 94 F 150 I used to own.
But I built quite a few vehicle kits in my day. I was doing the auto paint thing (so much better than kit paint), bare metal foil on all the chrome moldings and so on. It is a relaxing hobby, also less costly and space consuming vs the real thing. Be sure to post photos of your finished ones.
Too bad it was WAY wrong (the kit) with the Charger 500 rear window, but few people ever realized it. It's one of the few kits I kept when I sold off most of my stock.
