The red ranger prerunner on the left is now 100% complete. It's the AMT 95 XLT model kit. I lifted this one, swapped in the 94 ford lightning rims and put tires from an F-150 4X4. I fabricated the prerunner bar and undercarriage guard out of plastic and cardboard. Interior is dark grey, black and red. That's a kawasaki ninja in the bed.

Sorry bout the placement of the dropped ranger, i should have made it more visible. Anyway, it has ground effects, hard tonneau cover, NASTRUCK wing, focus style headlights, convertible top, chrome 20" scale 5 spoke rims, and I dropped it by sectioning the I-beams and cutting the coils out front and bending up the leaf springs in the back. The interior is yellow/green and black. I'm not near finished this kit. I'm gonna rip it apart, shave everything and give it a new paint job.... probably a met blue or charcoal carbon paint job.

And now for my favorite kit EVER, the 94 ford lightning. This kit looks ok in the pic, but the paint job is horrible and it's just temporary till i get a new airbrush. I've spent maybe a good 25 hours on this kit so far. I shaved all the ugly body lines, all the handles and emblums, made the front bumper a smoothie, sectioned the i-beams and coils, and bent the leaf springs. I also custom made a rollpan on the rear. 4 wheel disc brakes are swapped out of a 99 cobra. Engine bay, interior and undercarriage are HIGHLY detailed with realistic paint jobs. The 20" scale wheels look a lot like Boze stixx: http://www.sporttruckdirect.com/Pics/Stixx5_Big.jpg Only the spokes are solid and the spaces between them are a little more rounded. Once its all done up, I'll probably put a couple black crotch rockets in the bed.


Enjoy! And feel free to browse through my other folders. I have a new album on there with pics of ghetto sightnings, an old taurus with twin pink racing stripes and an old corsica with a fart can.

damn those look good. i have built a few kits in my time, such as a ferrari f-50 crossed with a monster truck, 70 monte carlo ss lowrider, 65 vette' stingray, and a 57' chevy bel air. i just don't have the cash to go out and buy a proper airbrush. but i gotta say, nice work!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
