I have started the Skybow Dodge 6X6 and am building it as a WC63 (winch) with MG mount. I also am adding the Eduard PE set for this kit. The kit is good enough to do with out the PE but I got both the model and PE at a special price which was below the cost of the kit only. Comments are welcome.

Dashboard. I have cut the dash lights from the kit dash before scraping it and added them to the PE dash.

Once again comments are welcome.

It is looking good already. Let me know how it all goes with the fit and all. I have been thinking or getting this kit myself. I will be watching this one with great interest;)

Brother Pouch:

From what I have heard this is a very good kit. With the PE, and your softskin and scratch expertise,--- this one will be dynamite.

Going to model with the hood up Cliff to show that engine off?---dio maybe?

Cliff,

Beauty is in the detail! I like what you have started here with the detailing on the engine. The look of the dash is also good too - do you plan on making those light work! :-)

Howdy cliff,
Obviously the beginnings of a great build-up. I recently (this weekend) tried to pick up this kit at my local hobby shop, but they didn't put it out on clearance like the other stuff they did......so I'll have to wait till next time.
Good luck with the build-up!

Tread.
