I just love this, and yes the cat rules

My cat is siting and looking at the car when I drive outside

I rewatched the vid and love that it squicks like a real truck going over stuff. Have you given any thought about making a 77 or 79 Ford F150 step side? I would love to see that. Once again love your trucks you do awesome work.

Thanks again guys.


After fixing up the old 57 Ford recently, i decided to give a little more attention to the Blazer too.

The body was kinda lumpy in a couple spots and was getting a little beat up, so i sanded it all down again with some rough grit and filled a few spots. I thought the front windshield was a little too slanted too, so i pulled the window off and carved down the pillars some more. Not a real drastic change but now that its back on, i do like it better.

I repainted the truck in a flat paint colour this time as i've been liking that better lately. I thought i was mixing a similar colour but it ended up a little darker and slightly bluer than before. I like it. Weathered it up some too and decided to paint the light (bezels?) silver instead of black for a change. Ive seen reference pics of both black and silver.

Anyhow got it all back together and put on some new tires that are a great size for this truck. I like the look.

Here's a video i made yesterday at -10c. Our snow melted over the last weekend and i raked the trails clean. Then it got really cold and all the roughed up soft dirt froze solid. These soft tires and heavy body on that dirt gave me the most grip ive ever experienced. I tried to do the whole ride without any spinning. Fun but freezing times.





Here's a few new pics i took with frozen fingers after videoing.
