- This is my model cars and coffee entry for this week. A model I built for my brother last Christmas. It's a truck my brother and uncle used to own. A 1977 F250 XLT Lariat in light ivy. I used Rustoleum ocean mist for the paint and Rustoleum 2k clear.

Thank you! That's awesome! When I was little, my dad had a 68 f100 with a 360 and 3 on the tree. Really miss that truck!
Cool Truck Will, I like that color. I always liked those Ford pickups.👍👍
Thank you! Me too!
Sweet looking build Will like that color you went for 👍👍

You're welcome! Thanks for watching👍

Thank you!👍
@@1968fordman Your welcome!!
Looks great Will😊
Thank you!
Looks great Will! The color is so nice. I had a 79 shortbox F150, someday I'll get brave and start cutting on a Firestone kit.
Thank you! Good luck with that one! Lol.... Hopefully Moebius will come out with a 78-79 one.🤞
You don't see those trucks in that color much anymore, pretty cool.
No you dont. Thanks
Cool story and very nice looking truck!
Thanks!
Sweet build brother, thank you for the shoutout!
Sure thing....thank you!
Ford truck turned out awesome sir I just found your channel and sub to you will be watching for more update
Hey! Thank you for the sub! Just returned a sub👍
You really made a diamond out of a lump of coal with that kit. I have built several of those kits over the years - the multi-piece bed is a pain, and getting the bed to line up with the cab is no fun either. I owned a real 1971 F250 Camper Special and a 1978 F150. I love the 70's Ford trucks - those are the best trucks they ever made. I would still build another one of those AMT kits, though the Moebius ones are much better (they don't make a 78-79 yet though). I sold my 78' but I wish I I hadn't. That was a mistake.
Thank you! Yeah it was a tough build. Had to add styrene to the bed to get it to align with the cab. Could've got it a bit better, but I was done with that kit, Lol. Yeah the Moebius kits are way better and their beds are alot easier to assemble! I agree that the 70's Ford trucks are some of the best they ever built.
Nice looking build. I did the Firestone Ford few years ago and I remember not having any issues with it, I really need to find it and take it out again (most my older builds got boxes up when I moved. Couple years ago)
Thank you! It's not that bad of a kit, other than the bed. That was what was kicking my butt. I'd rather build another moebius kit than that one. Lol. I'd really like to see your version of that kit.👍
@1968fordman I'd like to share it one day. Right now a number of my builds are still in boxes from when I moved couple years ago, haven't seen the light of day since, really need to go thru them one day
Hi Will, the truck looks great. It's cool that you build for your family. Not a critique, but more of a question since I'm building a pickup with few in the stash. Could that bed have been shimmed on the frame for better alignment? 🤔
Thanks, Joe! Yeah I could've gotten it aligned better. I had to add strips of styrene underneath the bed to get it aligned better. It was worse and looked like the frame was broken. Lol. I was just finished with that kit and wanted to move on. It's a nice kit, but the bed is horrible to build. The Moebius kits are way better and their beds are easier to build. Thanks for the question.👍
@1968fordman thanks for the info buddy. I'm doing the Revell GMC. I also have a Mobius I will get to eventually.
@modelbuildingcorner
That Revell kit should be alot easier to build. I love Revell kits. I have a MPC truck kit to build. The Deserter kit, which I'm gonna build to look like the Fall Guy truck.👍
