Nice Work !!! As a Model Railroader, I can appreciate the amount of work that goes into making something look scuzzy. I almost need a tetanus shot just to look at it !!! Laughing Needs more rust though...

Wow, all the little touches on this are so good. The shots of it missing the wheels make it look even more like it's in its natural habitat, just need it up on some cinder blocks!

There's a true art to making things look weathered and real. I salute you for your ability do do it.

Great work, if it wasn't for the back drop would have thought it's real. Wheels are fantabulus.

It looks great and in no way is this judgement but the one thing everyone I have seen that when weathering an old chevy/GMC truck of this style is the bent in half hood. This was a very common issue on them. Once that happened closing the hood is a 2 person operation. I have never seen that duplicated in scale.
