I have one of these and I made it look old and I made a flatbed for it and I’m 12 years old and im proud of my self! :D
Edit:I’m 13 now sooo yay!
Thanks for watching and glad you're having fun modeling!
Nice build as always. Love the little go-kart. I am a sucker for those extras that some kits put in.
Thanks Mary!
AMT has really stepped up its game. Looks like a great kit.
I think so too, great kit!
its actually a repop of a kit from the 90s i think its really good im not a fan of the double hump hood but that part doesnt matter lol plus other than the 50 chevy has that inline 6another great one buddy
Another great job, love,love,love your videos. Have you ever thought of showing at least one portion of the build "live" like painting the lettering on the tailgate? Thanks for the time you spend on these videos.
@@hpiguy is this a new model coming out
I have to agree. There was a time when I would not even think of building an AMT kit. Years ago the quality was pretty low.
The Go Kart looks Fantastic too! Such Awesome detail!
The kit screams two tone, the roof panel option is great !! You did the old Chevy proud!! Beautiful work!
Thank You Sir!!! 😁
Thanks Kevin!
Thanks Chris. That makes me feel better about the idea. Another idea I have is to do a kit of Revell's 65 Chevy Stepside pick up truck which I already have that I did a custom paint job on. I used Testors "Purplelishous" on it (if I spelled that right) lol. But when I was 12 years old my dad had an Aqua green 65 Chevy Stepside pick up truck that had the old white Jeep Wagon wheels from the 80's. And at the same time daddy had this truck, he bought me a red go-cart. He used to take me to places where I could drive my go-cart and he would help me load the go-cart on that old truck. I was thinking about doing a kit and trying to get it to look like my dad's truck and taking the little go-cart from this kit here and putting it with that kit. Daddy used to have a dark green GMC truck kinda like this one here. Sadly my dad passed away a year ago. But I think if I did a model truck like that he would smile and say "Todd that's pretty !" Just like he always did whenever I would finish a model. Dad loved these old cars and trucks as much as I do and he instilled that love in me.
I got this one on the waiting table. I didn't remember I'd watched your video on it before. Glad for the tips, yours looks great
Hope you enjoy it!
@@hpiguy thanks I'm sure I will
I’m glad I watched this and read through the comments. I love the truck, but my chassis and body didn’t go together at all. It was so tweaked that the bed and cab were a 1/4 inch off. Glad to see I must have just gotten a bad one
Used to save up my paper route money
to spend on a few laps at the local
go cart track Saturdays .
Cool addition of the cart - truck is
beautiful- delicious color.
I love that you opted to paint the bumpers and grill white.
Thanks for watching the video, much appreciated!
Make sure to join the fun on the hpiguys Workshop Facebook page if you haven't already!
Incredible that this is a re release, that detail looks like a new mold! Im in love with this build, great job!
Yeah, it's like a very modern kit.
@@hpiguy The go-cart would have been part of the original molding correct? I know the older kits used to throw in some really great accessories to their trucks like the toyota with raft you did.
Good job! It turned out nice. Highly detailed kit.
Thank you!
I'm totally impressed as always Chris! Beautiful build! My dad owned a 60 Chevy step-side when I was a kid. Had a huge rust hole in the floor board. Everytime we hit a puddle water sprayed up in the interior. Lol
My uncle later bought the truck and tricked it out, but kept the patina blue paint with red primer spots. And yes, he fixed the rusted out floors.
And by the way I'm finishing up my Greased Lightning build. An awesome kit! So glad to see Revell bringing out some great kits.
Thanks Scott, enjoy the 48!
I've never dull coated chrome before and I wish I had. That looks fantastic!!! Great Idea.
You should! Thanks!
Looks like a great kit, you make it sound like a lot of fun to build.
Thanks, it's real slick.
You’re videos flow great! Everything we want and need to see, and nothing we don’t.👍
Thank you!
Awesome Build! I'm just about to start mine!
chris, i really admire your workflow.
i watch every build video start to finish & your videos seem to put everybody in a good mood
Thanks! My thinking is, why do a hobby of you don't have fun? I love building stuff!
Yes, he and R&R are assets to the model hobby industry. And a threat my wallet,,,, .
:))
You are so talented, the model looks fabulous, great ideas you come up with too.
Thank you so much!
Wow, I am ready to build models again after 40 years! Built 100's when I was kid. The kits were $2.00 for the big boy kits.. Fun
Enjoy!
I love all your reviews! Especially the build reviews!! I watch you all the time now. I have even gotten my wife into your videos. Thank you so much! Keep building and having fun!
Thanks man! Appreciate the nice words!
GREAT vid! You’ve got a new fan. I bought this kit yesterday and am finally able to start it
Awesome! Thank you!
Everyone here loves your videos,and we all look up to you,
Youve surely become one of the major allstars here. Thank you chris
Well thank you! Very nice of you to say. Happy modelling!
I did an Edsel Pacer in Seaside blue and white. Love that color combo!
Love the blue and white...and it's a six. That straight six could get a LOT of uses!
You bet!
Hey, when are you going to make a video of all the builds you've done? Thanks
f
The Amt 60 Chevy pickup is a great kit, the 55 Chevy 283 small.block sits right down in the frame with very little trouble.
Just now watched this episode and the build came out sooo clean, geat job!
GOD Bless !!!!
Thanks!
Great color choices. Thank you for sharing this build.
Thanks Jack!
I'm 51 and have never complained a model. Watching your videos is going to make it happen. The painting thing is a bit confusing to me and I want it to be perfect. Glue has also been a huge problem in my other failed attempts. I think I am ready to give it another shot. Thanks for the confidence. Jack
That cane out gorgeous luv the lil ho-kart cames with kit I did the 2000 release Amt 60 Chevy truck kit in 02
Thanks Malik!
You had me at Go Kart !!! Another fine choice with an equally quality video.
Thanks for sharing...
Thanks man!
I love all these models videos !!!! And your so encouraged about it !
Thanks man, it's good to enjoy a hobby!
Sweet build, great color combo and style 🤙🏼
Glad you like it!
Now how cool is that, a go cart!! Woohoo! I am having one or 2! Yous turned out absolutely beautiful!
Thanks man!
Love the color! This one would have to be my favorite because the 1960 Chevy Truck is my favorite classic truck.
Thanks for the nice words and for watching!

my uncle on my dad's side had an old 1960 C60 truck on the farm that dad used each summer when he did his harvesting. until dad bought his own truck .. a 1959 Chevy Apache 6100 series 2 ton truck
your reviews were quite good before and as time goes on they're getting more and more polished - lots of detail well laid out in a short period of time. The best I've seen. And man am I saving money on rattle can paints . . .
Thanks James!
Just bought this kit today,great video,and review👍👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Subjects based on Late-90s AMT tooling has few equals. Nice job on the build.
Thanks!
Video was awesome. Color seems to be more vibrant. Love the truck too!
Thanks Dave!
Great job I love the color and the little go cart 💙
Thanks Mike!
Looks great, Chris. I really thought your color choice was spot on for this build. - Mark
How did you paint the Chevrolet on the tailgate
Thanks Mark!
I brushed white gloss into the depressions and then used Qtips to remove any that ended up outside the letters. Then I let it sit and dry for an hour.
Really nice job,like that you used regular paint,and the color choice is awesome! I have a request, would you show painting the Chevrolet logo on the tail gate , I can never get to come out nice like yours,thanks again great build.
Thanks! If I get another with an indented tailgate, sure.
Awesome kit and Awesome Job Chris.
Thanks Jesse!
When I was a kid in high school i dreamed of owning one. Nice job.
Sweet!
I was JUST thinking I wanted the 60 Chevy pickup a few days ago and this video shows up on my recommended videos. Are you in my head? lol Now I need this kit. Thanks for the review!
Thanks Clifton!
Another excellent Chris, I have been antisapating the release of this kit since the box art hit the web! Awesome color choice!
Thanks Ron, it's a peach!
This is a cool model! A long time ago I had a 1962 Chevy pickup that I painted close to the same color. Great job, I really liked this one.
Another awesome build Chris!!! What a great looking classic chevy truck. Hell I'd buy it just for the go kart. Getting the truck is just a bonus.
Thanks Joe! It's fun from start to finish.
Awesome.. Looks great! I love it when you actually build the kits.
58 or so full builds this year alone. Thanks for watching Bevan!
@@hpiguy yeah I've noticed a few. I enjoy watching them 😊
We recently got an "Ollie's" in the area. I have been in there a couple of times. The have more models than any other store, outside of a hobby shop of course. Many Lindberg ships. No, did not see a Blue Devil Destroyer or PT109, but they do have the Robert E. Lee riverboat, the tugboat, and many smaller scale battleships and cruisers. Lots of car kits too from other manufacturers.
Wish they'd open some near me but wishful thinking. Love me some old Lindberg ships. That Robert E Lee is a nice kit and usually goes for $50 or so. Worth grabbing on bargain prices.
Went by there today. No more Robert E. Lee, still had the tugs though. One I thought about getting and putting away was the Dodge L-700 with chrome tank trailer. It was $24.99. I think retail is near $50. Revell must have had some quality control problems, because I spotted two Challenger SRTs with the prepainted bodies. Both were sealed in Camero ZL1 boxes. These are the boxes with window so the body and rims are visable. $9.99 each. Also tempting because I have a Challenger. I have enough kits, and they are in a big box somewhere???? Keep up the good work.
Awesome build and kit Chris! I love that they put that super cool straight 6 in there, Nice touch! Looks like tons of great detail to, The little go cart is very cool! Nice color choice to bud!!
Thanks Whitey, this was another pleasure to build. Most of them are!
Looks great!! So I see what I am going to get and do when I get this and the garage tools
Sweet, enjoy!
Nice Truck and Cart I've never built this one yet tho I owned a real one but a G.M.C. W/v6 Engine nice Build keep up the good work Thanks.
Thanks again Matthew!

I love the color combo!
Me too!
The only thing that would make this kit a favorite of mine would have been a big back window BUT it is a beautiful kit :)
Thanks!
I see what you did it is almost factory two tone Chevy's back in 60 the cab tips were white only it also covered the a and c pillars and below the back window good almost approximate factory color think I'll paint my cameo those colors I have like 12 colors I need to get from MCW warehouse paints but I can't afford them all at once but this is a good alternative THANKS !!!
Tops*
I looked at this kit for a while, but this review convinced me to purchase it (along with the 1948 Ford Greased Lightning kit). Now you need to review the MPC 1978 Dodge D100 LWB 4x2 Sweptside kit.
Thanks!
Hoping to get that D100 for review as soon as I can.
One of the best models you've built! beautiful work.
Looks so much nicer NOT lowered.
Yes, I preferred it sitting up. Thanks!
I guess it is a matter of taste. I prefer stock vehicles. The best looking older cars I see are those that look like they just came from the factory. I cringe when I see a classic car "chopped" are lowered to within 2 inches of the ground, but that is just my preference. If I ever restore a car, or more likely a tractor, it will be as stock as possible. I have not built a model in 20 years, but that has not stopped me from collecting kits and putting them away for sometime when I may start up again. I am 51, but up to a couple of decades ago I still had a ceiling full of hanging 1/72 scale WWI and WWII fighters. Thanks for reigniting my interest in this hobby. BTW I am subscribing to your channel.
Awesome job on the truck and keep up the good work .
Thanks Greg!
Great video and love the color scheme. I wish somebody would come out with a '57 Ford F-100 Fleetside so I could build my old truck.
Thanks Richard!
Food for thought...buy a Revell "parts pack" 283 Chevy V8 for the truck and save the 6 for the 1963 Chevy II Nova wagon kit coming out this month ( Jan. 2021) that doesn't have an engine included. The Chevy II only came with 6 banger in '63.
Very well done! Those colors really pop together, gocart looks perfect sitting in the back :D
Thank you!
Another awesome build. That truck definitely pops. Love the detail. I always enjoy your videos.
Thank you John!
That color though... Beautiful!!!
Thanks Sebastian, I really loved it too.
Super cool thanks for the video, I like the way you can explain things, makes the video more interesting ans exciting. I need to get back to the bench and start building.
Thanks for coming along for the FUN!
Nice build and kit. I like the colors.
Thanks Jefferson! Me too, digging that Seaside, we'll see that color again for sure.
Great looking truck and go cart. Nice kit. You do the best reviews. Thanks for sharing and them coming
Thanks Jorge!
cool reissue with the go-kart and nice build ( I picked up a resin coy of the go-kart at NNL East in 2016 but sorry to say still on the to do list, also came with the streamliner outer shell)
Thanks Craig!
What a fantastic model. Great video. Thanks
Thanks Ross!
Nice work! I could never get the ride height settled on mine. At least yours sits level...
Thanks!
A wonderful kit and a great job done. Thank you.
Thank you!
Awesome Chevy Pickup ! Great job ! I like the color ! 👍😊
Thanks Henrique!
kool , thanx...Dream rider truck...sweeet one , very nice
Robert
Thanks Robert!
I feel the new camera did add clarity to the review- thank you for your investment!
Thanks, and I think I fixed the canned sound issue today as well while filming the next review.
The biggest investment with any new equipment is time in the form of learning how to use it and "tuning" for best results. I appreciate that you are willing to do this to improve your reviews!
OH I need this kit!! thanks for sharing Chris!! new camera seems like it working out quite nicely.
It's a sweet buildup. Thanks, was an early Xmas gift. Got the sound issue set today so we should be all set for new videos for a long time.
Loved it! When you choose a custom color, do you consider automobile manufacturer colors, or do you choose what "pops?"
Your attention to detail and explicit guidance amazes me! Your build reviews are very relaxing for me, therapeutic. Thank you!
Depends, I'll look at the model year and see what colors they offered, or just pick what I want.
You do awesome work, wish i had your skill level, but at least i can watch a master artist do his thing, very cool!!!!!!
Thanks Ken!
Chris I bet you'll guess what I will say..... .LOL yeah gonna have to get this kit, it looks awesome.
Get two! Enjoy man!
Super beautiful build. Love the two tone. Thanks for the awesome review
Thanks Darth!
I would bet the twin engins. Are the mcculloch engines the original color of them are yellow if anyone wants to make the karts original...cool little karts need 2 of them ...race team ...nice build looks great 👍
Chris, Another wonderful build, man. I can't tell you how many videos are out there when the camera just does not focus. I was just thinking, whenever you bring something up close, your camera ALWAYS focuses. That IS a Gr8 feature. I am Really glad that you got a new camera, but I have noticed that. AND I like that color on the truck. It really does look like a mild custom. Go kart came out really nice, also. God Bless, Be safe my friend. T4, tom
Thanks again Tom!
Love it Chris...they just keep getting better and better! Great video and build...I will probably have to have one of these as well. Nicely done!! Thanks for sharing...
Thanks Mike, it's a really nice kit.
That’s a cool kit must have a couple nice review as always Chris colors perfect and that go cart is cool
video is perfect also
Thank you Jeff!
Another amazing build, thank you for sharing. Keep up the great work and have an amazing day.
Thanks Chopper!
Building this kit now and I think I did something wrong because I’ve got like 10 degrees of camber up front but I love the kit all in all
I have got to get this kit, nice work
Yes you do! Thanks!
I'm building the same truck with a mild modification my own colors and style leaving the six cylinder and having a go-kart
Beautiful build.
Thank you!
Absolutely loved this video! Definitely gave me some ideas for my models. New subscriber!
Glad you liked it!
Cool Chris! I like it dude! Looks good brother! I wish one of the models companies would make a longbed Chevy P/U 60’- 65’. My first vehicle I had when I was 16 was a 65’ Chevy longbed pickup! Guess if I want to make a model version of it I’ll have to make my own longbed, literally! My truck was about that color you painted that one! Anyways, good job man! 👍🤘✌🏻Doug
Thanks as always Doug!
Nice review and reveal Chris. Great build from you as always, keep up the good work!...Bill
Thanks much Bill!
That's a great kit. You made it look awesome. Love it my friend
Thanks Danny!
Looks awesome very realistic 👍
Thanks Robbi!
This truck is beautiful! But the translations! They burn! 3rd degree burns to my eyes!
Your build is really beautiful and personally, I didn't notice a change in the quality of the "film". I did however, notice that the sound was a little "canned" tho. I guess it go with learning to know your new camera too.
Thanks man! Yeah, working on the sound. It's true 1080p at 30fps now, instead of 720p at 17fps before. On a TV I can see the difference but not on a phone or laptop. Hoping I can figure out the sound in the settings, we'll see.
Looks like a awesome kit 👍
It is!
Utterly beautiful.
Thank you very much!
Very good job nice blue
Thanks Thomas!
very informative videos bud. Question...you part the parts while they are still joined to the plastic trees. when you take them off the tress, how do you paint those areas that were connected to the tree?
You'll want to watch Saturdays upcoming video for that answer. It's very simple. ;)
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
