'54 Chevrolet COE

[vanLoOWRIDER]

Hello builders,

This is my latest project. It's a Chevrolet COE and two Vincent HRD motorcycles all from 1954. The kit I've used for this truck is a AMT Chevrolet Stepside pickup from 1950. I've made the fenders, bonnet, grille and flatbed all from scratch. The only thing you can recognize are the cab and the headlights.

The motorcycles are from IXO Models. One original and the other is customized to a Bobber with other wheels, fenders, exhaust, seat and paint.

Here are some pictures of the finished build:

Really nice looking piece. The COE is so ugly, but somehow sort of beautiful at the same time.
I like the fact that you have modelled the tie-down straps, so many people leave these thing off and lose a lot of realism in the process.
I am going to copy those straps for my midget racer project that is nearing completion now, thanks.
Regards, Steve.

I'm not sure, but I think it came from an European truck.
