Dented my body up, weathered it, cracked the glass (all using methods you have show) and put a stepside painted in the furthest thing from a matching color on mine. Looks very good.
Hey I just wanted to say thanks for reviewing all these models. It's extremely helpful in choosing which models to buy.
Thanks as always!

WOW, damn that's sweet! I didn't think the color would come out that bright under the decals
You know you've made the big time on TH-cam when you start seeing "hpiguys viewers watch this" on other modeling videos. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
Haha, thanks!
Awesome build, paint and weathering ! Those camo decals laid down and blended really well. Would of never thought grout would make such a convincing mud, great tip !
Thanks, the grout works great for dust effects and mud since it's such a fine particle.
Just got this kit today! My mind doesn't know which way to go. Fantastic build, I got my DL in Dad's 79 short box 350. In 1990.
One step at a time and it all falls together. Enjoy!
Just got mine today in the mail. Watched video again for a quick reminder. Can't wait to build mine. As always thanks for sharing!
Hope you enjoy it!
@@hpiguy did you have trouble with the tires? They didn't hold the rim very well, I thought. Otherwise a nice kit. Just disappointed with the rubber.
Im building this kit now. Nice tires in a kit for a change. The bad thing, they are directional like real tires, but they are all made the same. The beads on the tires are thin on one side and thick on the other, making the rims fit a little tricky on 2 of them to make matching pairs.
The way you did the mud is incredible. This is my favourite video on your channel so far.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I see this at Hobby Lobby all the time and never had any real interest in it... until I watched this video. I think I need one now!
It's a nice kit.
@@hpiguy I see that. I feel like the box didn't quite convey that as well as your review and build does!
That's a sweet looking old gmc. I really like what you have done with this one. That's awesome that they included camo decals and this can be built so many different ways.
Thanks, yes, this could be the basis for a dozen different builds or more.
I used to have a similar kit when I was a teenager. It was a Chevy stepside 4X4. The interior was identical to your kit. I've noticed it's a three speed in the column. As far as I know GM never put a three in a tree in the 4 wheel drives so what I did with mine was bent the column shifter to where the shit handle was visible over the dashboard looking at it from the front and snapped off the clutch pedal then filed it down to simulate an automatic. I also made it a "work in progress" truck and painted the front fenders and the stepsides a matte black like something a high school kid bought with his own money and fixing it up as he goes along
Thanks for watching man!
I love it too. I can not get enough of this awesomeness. I could watch this 24/ 7 Chris and still want to watch more. Great Build and Great tips on using the Future Finish. As always Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for sharing this with us.
Jeff
Thanks Jeff, if you can tell, I'm a big fan of the square bodies. This one was a joy for me to do.
Nice build. I picked this one up yesterday at Hobby Lobby!
Thanks for the nice words, we love all our cool viewers and their friendly support!

I just got one of these for Christmas can't wait to build it
Thanks and enjoy your hobby!

I'm building a 1969 442 olds and I'll send u pictures of my builds I have, started building models after watching ur 📹s, ur awesome bro!!!
Thanks for watching and have fun!
Thanks for the tip on sliding the interior tub in from the front
Really like your chrome treatment
with dull coat.
Overall looks really tuff....
another new favorite build.
Thanks John!
I was going to get one of these, but I think I'm fully satisfied just watching you do it
Fantastic video and work Chris...the truck looks great!! Thanks for sharing...
Thanks Mike!
One of my favorite models, but the coke bottle MOPARS are tops.
Nice work Chris !, I missed this video for some reason
Thanks Gary!
That turned out great!, really enjoy your review and builds.. I'll be building that for Chevy truck month... 👍
Thanks Steve!
That reminds me of something from the original red dawn movie, or out at the res. Nice build.
I'm glad you took time out of your day to watch and comment! Thanks!
Would love to get to your level. Just got back into doing model's after 10 or so years. Thanks for the video's and inspiration. I watched 30 plus easy of your work . Thank you.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a nice comment!
Wow! Thats a wondetful build Chris
The mud affect really brought this truck to life!
Thanks man!
Great build, I've got three of the snow plow versions of this revell GMC pickup truck😊😊👍👍❤❤
Awesome! Thank you!
Wish you showed the Decals being placed on the truck because they are huge lol I’m building this kit now 🙏🏻
Also a nice touch with the mud sweet
Thanks, enjoy your kit!
I had a 85 Silverado as a work truck Drove it for 15 years and put over 300 thousand miles on the motor before I got a 90 model Silverado Put owner two hundred thousand on the motor before I got a 01 Silverado that I’m still driving today Great trucks
I really really really love the color and ties and the rims really really really cool truck
Thanks for taking time out of your day to watch and comment!

I want those long guns and rack for my Gee-Gaw collection.
looks good,i might get one to do the Fall Guy truck.
Thanks!
I have this on my bench now. I dechromed all those parts.
very cool will be adding this to the stash
Looks great ! Awesome truck ! Good job ! 👍😊
Thank you!
Awesome job!
Thanks!
I’d like to get into doing these
You do Awsome work !!!
Thank you Kevin!
Great review and build up. Has always been my favorite gm truck bodystyle too. That square shape just screams truck
For sure, thanks! Even non-GM folks end up liking this generation of Chevys.
your models are making me to switch from airplanes to cars and trucks
Thanks for watching Charlie. No need to switch, you can make planes, cars, trucks, boats and whatever. No one needs to just pick one type of kit and build only that. Have fun, that's the most important part!
Was the dashboard short in your kit? Mine is short and doesn't fit properly on the seat tub. Trying to figure out how to mount the dashboard.
great build
Thanks!
Awesome build and review Chris! You have the same taste in kits as me I got the Jeep Honcho kit last week and just got this kit today!! Great stuff buddy!!
Thanks for watching. FYI, the decals release slow after dipping, but give them a little extra time and you won't have any tearing. Once they release they slide smooth.
Awesome thanks for the heads up bro!
You almost snuck this one by me ! I saw it but thought it was an old video. Damn you !!! Now I've got to get one of those kits too! Keep up your outstanding videos! I really look forward to seeing a new video from you. Not something I can say about most folks on TH-cam.
Thanks Ennis, much appreciated!
Great build up!! Tamiya or Meng need to do one of these in 1/35
That would be interesting.
Thanks for the review and build up. Gotta have one of those.
Thank you Shannon :)
Always an awesome review and build!
Thanks Dan!
As always, great video! Wish J could build models more often than I do. May be an odd thing to ask, but do you think this could be converted to standard 2 wheel drive? Possibly with some parts from a donor kit? I have a 74 chevy pickup, my first car, I’d like to build a model of. Thanks!
I'm sure it could be made 2WD if needed.
Really my first car was a carmine red and frost gloss white 74 chevy Cheyenne super c10 long bed roller... I originally bought with my own money a very nice example of a 83 Buick Regal Limited factory metallic brown and beautiful chocolate brown pillow top limited interior pkg but blown up Buick 231v6 had a fix for that but my cousin acquired a 84 black Buick Regal Limited factory red pinstripe and burgundy interior a a factory 305quadrajet 4bbl sbc th350c and the estate sale paperwork ugh no title so he really wanted to use the regal limited I had and we worked on a few deals on the drivetrain and the truck his dad my uncle actually had but that is awesome to hear that you had a 74 chevy c10!! If I was you if yours was a long bed I'd either try to acquire the original 4 monogram 78 Chevy k10 monster trucks or the 3 reissue ones, but if you look online you will run across two versions of the long bed square body box if that is what you need.. I know that because I was looking into building a Fall Guy truck the right way with the mpc blue truck on the box 84 GMC Sierra k1500 short box
I unfortunately got rid of my 74 trust me I regret it.. very solid truck.
Hawaiian Blue and frost gloss white, orange red and frost gloss white, emerald green and frost gloss white, and Santa Fe tan and light Camel are the exterior paint scheme setups I liked I've owned a few, and yours looks sweet !! And I guess I could mention the beat up truck I had for 12 and a half years a midnight blue and frost gloss white and blue triple 80's specific pinstripe 86 chevy k20 custom deluxe bed farm truck
Awesome job buddy. I love you. In the middle of the "Deserter" build!!
Thanks Keith!
You did a really nice job on that truck, thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
I'm getting back into model cars 🚗do you have some tips 😏
I'm jealous, i have that kit but came missing the gun rack
Loved the build, but the OCD in me didn't like the column shift when it was a manual transmission. (unless it was a 3 on the tree) ;-)
Thanks!
Great review and build Chris, it would make a good companion build for the plow version. Cheers
Thanks Wayne, yeah love the plowtruck too.
Awesome I'll have to get a few of those. Great review and build as always
Thank you!
Very well done job...still can't figure chrome with camo...seems completely contrary to each other..but to each his own.
Thanks for watching Mark!
Hello, very beautiful realization
Thank you very much
Amazing! How much time would you say you invested in this build?
Two days on average for a car build.
Thanks, I appreciate the support and nice words!

The Dukes of hazard cop car kit has a pistol and like 4 other guns👍👍👍
Good tip!
How did you cut out the center of the tires to get the wheels to fit properly? I’ve tried, but ruined all four tires. Could you do a how to video on how you did the tires? I had a ‘75 K20 pickup. I’m going to build a model of how I wanted my truck to look all fixed up.
Great video brother! 😊
Dude your awesome. Want it
Very nice Roger, thanks!
I have a axial scx24 and a ecx24 barrage have you ever put one of these scale bodies on those rcs??
So do you just spray paint a matte silver or aluminum over the chrome? I love how the wheels came out. I’d like to duplicate the look.
See my more recent videos on dealing with chrome wheels made to look like steel. Thanks!
@@hpiguy I just want to say I’ve been a subscriber of your channel for awhile now. I have gotten a lot of inspiration from your videos I watch.
Could you be more specific about which videos talk about taking the chrome shine off the wheels. The look in the above video is what I’m wanting to do. I’ve stripped some in the past and painted them the color I want but yours look great!
Thanks for the help. Happy building
@@jimkaminski871 Any video I've done with metal look wheels. The Mach 5 video I just did for one and dozens and dozens of others. I show it very very frequently. Enjoy!
Now you'll have to add the rust holes from all that mud you're getting under the fenders and box. It looks good, though. Since I have a full size 'GMC '78 long box 3'4 ton, I built an earlier, Monogram, copy of that kit. I lengthened the frame and used a resin cast long box on mine. My main problem was in trying to match the two tone yellow and cream paint job on my real truck.
Haha, if it was in WI it would just be rust holding hands by now.
Not sure what you mean by rust holding hands but I sure know how famous these trucks are for rusting.
Oh yea, they're gonna sell a lot of these. Great work on that!
Thanks man!
nice build
Thanks Jody!
Great vid, I had a truck like this when I was younger with kc lights on the role bar
Cool!
How did you dull the chrome to look like aluminum?? Awesome awesome truck man!
Shoot it with Treehouse Studios Matte spray dulls it right down.
looks good ive seen those all over the place in the 80 and nineties looks like its barrowed parts from the mad mudder pull truck i will be acquiring this one the tires are a bit close for my tastetoo bad they dont have the parts to lift the body
Thanks Gene. Lifting the body would be pretty easy with some cut down sprue pieces.
I like the truck, I was wondering how it looks next to the MPC deserter pick up
Would be very similar but different enough to stand out, just like the real ones.
I wish they’d do a full size bed for this kit, ya know, for the Fall Guy fan in all of us.
interior is awesome
Thanks!
I would like to see the Malcolm to come out with a Ted Nugent special series 4-wheel drive pickup truck with the zebra shape paint job
Very nice job. If you still have it could you tell me the wheel base length center to center and body width. Looking to throw this body on a RC truck.
I just bought one hoping I can make it fit my axial scx24
Tell me if it does
Your positive energy& your perfect vocab made this a really fun video to watch, i felt like i was watching a sporting event! Really great work. Very clean building style!
Thanks Timothy!
How do you get the tires to direction? mine came with only left side tires they can only go together one way from what i see? The wheels go to the thin walled side and back of wheels fit in the back thick insets about 3/16 inset. Great model im loving it
I talk about how I fit the tires in this review.
@@hpiguy I have watched 4 times and do not see how, I got all left side tires? The back peace goes in where the inset is to hold in place, the wheels go to the thin wall of tire i got that. but no matter what tires i put where the right side is backwards? I would have to put 2 wheels on the side the backs pieces go in to be directional , Can you tell me what minute marker has the way you corrected this? Wish i could show you a video of what im talking about
g man you have to cut out the inner part of the tires like the instructions say to. The kit does only supply driver side tires though that why removing the inner part is necessary. The passenger sides won’t be perfect on the rim but will be serviceable. I put a bead of super glue on the back side to help hold the tires on the rims.
That was an impressive build thanks
Thanks for watching!
NICE!
Thanks Danny!
What is the wheelbase on this model? Been looking at it because I'm thinking about putting it on a rc kit
How would u recomend a bedliner look
I'd use black craft paint and stipple it on as it dried.
Wow really really really. Cool 😎 GMC. TRUCK. I wish I had that truck really really really Cool 😎 😎
Very nice truck! Great job!
Thank you Todd!
Out of all the different body styles of Chevy & GMC pick-up trucks ever made, those 1973 - 1987 year model ones right there in that video are my favorite. The heartbeat of America🇺🇸👍.
You bet, great trucks.
Heat video. I bought the same model recently and was wondering how exactly do you use the tile grout. I searched the internet but I found nothing. Could you please make a video on this or reply. Thanks
Mix it up and apply it like mud. It's honestly that simple.
That's a cool kit. It always reminded me of Rocky's pickup on The Rockford Files.
Nice!
Great build...love it
Thank you, glad you liked it. :)
So question how do you paint these and how do you connect all the parts
I get more into painting in more recent reviews, check those out. Thanks!
Parts are joined with plastic cement for models (I prefer Bondene) and super glue for painted parts.
Originally a Monogram kit. I have this assembled from 35 years ago. Kool.
I like to use Rust-Oleum for base colors as well. Great coverage and, honestly, a better price than hobby paint. What primer do you use? I use the R-O primer as well, but hit the styrene with a bunch of super light coats so it doesn't melt or distort then when I spray the color I can go a bit heavier. Just found your channel - pretty cool stuff!
I use either auto shop primer in a can or Rustoleum primer. Neither has given me an issue.
have you done di-cast medal car kits?
I've never built one of the cast metal kits, no.
Super Great Build,! 👍🍻
Thanks Silvan!
Making this truck as we speak these tires are a pain in the ass
Take your time, they will slide over the wheels in the proper direction but it's not the most supreme fit. As long as you don't play with it after it's built mine have not fallen off.
It's kind of hard to cut the webbing in the tires
Your engine should be Chevy orange not blue :) But looks good!!!
Hi James, thanks for the nice words. By 78 it would have likely been GM corporate blue from the factory.

That answers my question as when I googled it I really didn't find much, But great build and get lots of ideas for my builds!!! Cheers and happy building!!
Same to you James!
Those engines were blue, at least in Canada, I have a '78 GMC pickup.
I am in Canada too and did not know this!!!
I just got this mode on I have a problem installing wheels be due to the cut out part you have to do one side goes in great but the other side won't
It's the passenger side tires
It ca be done as I did, you just have to line it up carefully, but it will slip off if you mess with it.
Thank you
@@hpiguy Where can I message you personally to ask you some questions and tips if you have any on building my own day arama
Another great build
Thanks Sam!
Really Sharp & Great Detail Work
Thanks Charles!
