Moebius 1971 Ford Ranger Pick-up

[Jeeves]

Was excited to see this one come out as my grandfather had one when I was growing up...really loved that old beast and tooling around with him on various "work" projects he took me on...









Nearly to the point of putting everything together! Still need to think of what's going in the bed circa 1971...lawn mower or go-cart would be cool...

Mike, I think I remember having had just this car, same colours on box et all, back then when I still did build car kits, too. Don´t know if it was from AMT, Ertl, or whatever.

That´s agreat looking truck! You did choose some nice colours! Do I see a carpet there in the cab?

Looking good, Mike.

[Jeeves]

Thanks guys!

Thomas- nope- that's just the texture of the kit floor accentuated with Mig washes.

Man, that truck brought back memories back in the 70s. The kit looks pretty cool too!

[Jeeves]

Thanks again all!

One needs a bit of reading material while puttering around in one's truck, n'est-ce pas?

[Thomas_M]

Contemporary magazines!
Mike, you may read the one with Nixon on the cover. I´ll take care of the other one...

From the good old days when the women were not all tattooed and pierced like a sailor or carnival act...

[Jeeves]

Thanks guys! Played around making beer bottles and boxes today...might try scratch building a gun rack for the back window as well as a fishing pole
