01/30/2007: "S scale truck"

GMC flat nosed cab

This is part of an S scale GMC flat nosed truck cab. I think it's 1955 model but I'm not sure. I'm really starting to like working on these things. The plastic original at the top comes from Jeff Wilhelm who does all the sculptures on these trucks. You can see how he builds these from mostly plastic and a bit of brown/aluminum putty to smooth out some of the joints. The casting below is one of the pewter masters I made from the sculpt. I have the production mold done on this and a fairly large order for them to get out so back to work.
