Turned out beautifully! Subtle paint choice, but the aggressive rubber rake makes a powerful statement, backed up by that muscular Poncho mill. Nice work tucking the exhaust under the running boards too!

That is slick. Looks like it could be a 1:1 Ford design.

Looks like it SHOULD have been done by Ford. This is a very sharp little pickup. Gary

Very, very well done. Sharp as a pin.

This turned out absolutely fantastic, Roger! The conversion looks seamless, the proportions are right-on and the color scheme is perfect.

1936 ford pickup...actually was a thing. I think you are calling this a phantom because you used a 36 coupe kit to build it? the differences would be the grille, hood and shroud...be back to this comment, lol life is calling..but nice work!

Yeah, I know Ford made a '36 pickup. But, the full scale truck from the factory is nothing like this. It was never produced. So, that makes it a phantom. I wanted it to look like it was something that could have been done.

Eye candy for sure. Put it on a shelf and stand back and smile.

This turned out very cool! The proportions are just correct, it looks like something that could have been done back in the day on Ford factory. I also dig the pretty mild-ish look, but when you open the hood it reveals the Pontiac engine. And as always on your models, it's very nicely done inside and out - yet another proof that you don't have to add tons of extra detailing to make a model look that good. Excellent work.

Beautifully done! Photos are great, too! Sometimes the subtle earth tones are the toughest to capture.
