So this body fit on the F150 chassis? I haven't though that, lol. Good idea! I'm going to make Hummer H2T "Truck" like Hummer H3 truck down road later late this year.

Definity to watch this and can't wait to see when finish. Good luck my friend.

i have to from the fenders out of cardborad so i can bondo over it, and it may be a pickup, not flatbed, havent figured it out yet. this is my first major project, so it may not be great. but after this one im doing a model truck body xmod off road truck, but not til this is done. i ahve to go to the store to pick up some bondo.

Don't use cardboard, use styrene. Should give you better results with less hassle.

Cut up gift cards or credit cards would also work.

I wouldn't recommend using cardboard.

Nice start! Looks cool.

thanks for the advice, i think i have a few game stop gift cards im not using somewheres, so ill use those instead. thanks for the advice. i have never used bondo before in my life, so this project wont turn out the best, most likely. but im certainly gonna try.
