Nice conceptual build of a Nomad Camino John. I think fit issues will always occur when you bash and customize parts like this but you made it work. 🙂

[@kingranch1962]

I think you are 100% right David.

Great work on it, the transmission tunnel, the stacks and the tail lights are the hardest part from this kit for me, I don’t remember having problems with the dash, but I like to modify my models so probably did and didn’t realize that, your truck looks fantastic, love the color combo

[@kingranch1962]

[@sodakmodelcars]

Nice build. Fun to challenge yourself with something new. Sounds like the interior tub is off some for the Nomad as the dash works fine in the sedan version even though the Nomad is the original version of the kit.

[@kingranch1962]

The dash was confusing. Thanks for watching and commenting

Wow nice Chevy El Camino , Thats' all the El Camino is just a station wagon with the roof cut back . They are not really considered a pickup truck because of the lightweight suspension system & There is already a 1955 Pickup , Is this the ( 2022 ) Retooled Version : 1/25 AMT 1955 Chevy Nomad Wagon - 3n1 Muscle Car Plastic Model Kit #1297 ? Nice Video . Ty

Thanks for the sub and for watching

[@howardharaway2259]

Next time you try to marry parts like this one, instead of glueing, try using a soldering iron with a temp. Controller and fuse the plastic together.
I got this idea from Model Muse Doug Whyte.

[@kingranch1962]

Great tip. Thank you.
