Great job on the truck Max! I particularly like the engine and the bed.  I would never know this was a first time you tried this. 1960 Cevy Pickup Picture Heavy 1705482731

That looks great, considering that when you laid the first coat and it looked out of the showroom to now it's an amazing transformation. Well done 1960 Cevy Pickup Picture Heavy 1705482731

You did a cracking job on this one Max, rust, dirt and scuff marks in all the right places.

Great weathering. Looks like it comes from a red soil area alright.

A great build, Max. Underhood is beautiful as is the addition of the dirty wide whites.
