Very nice. I like the 2 tone paint scheme in the Gulf colors.

[@valleyshaverjohn2821]

Perfect color combination. I remember seeing those Gulf service trucks all over the city, back in the day. Nice build.

I was so impressed by your build, I had to order the model for myself. Great job. Looks just like something you would see sitting at an old time gas station.

She's a beauty! You have better luck with rust O than I do! Great work!

[@peterwilding1203]

Thanks for the build report, Louie. Looks like this one's a must-have for me. Proibably wind up doing several!

[@davidhinkson8856]

I like the color scheme you chose for this truck, and when I saw you working on the dashboard decals I thought, "we've all been there" where the decal wants to stick to your fingers and everywhere else except where it is supposed to go. I like this truck, and the 1960 Chevy from AMT was a superb kit as well, but I would love to see one of the older Dodge trucks in kit form, either as a rerelease of an old one or an all new tool.

Looks good! On the wheels, I find it easier to snip off at least half of those tabs that go into the tires. It sure makes it much easier to get them in place.

Great looking truck & trailer. the color combo is cool! Another awesome build Louie! Thanks for sharing with us. Happy modeling.

[@TheAutisticModeler]

Thank you!!! Happy Modeling!!

[@johngligo4049]

Very nicely done! I did mine the same as the Gulf service truck! Absolutely fun build!

[@alancyr3100]

Sweet! Love those old service trucks. Thanks for sharing.

[@GrumpyGregsModelsandToys]

Your Ford F100 turned out awesome 👏 😎👍

[@markc7002]

Paint scheme is a stunner!

[@PatricksScaleModelShop]

I love these old trucks. You did an awesome job with it. I’ll be getting this one for sure.

We had Gulf Stations here in my hometown in my youth - 1960s through 1970s. One was a popular service garage, so they likely had a very similar truck. I'm looking for this kit now. I'm doing AMT's 1963 unibody F-100 Custom Cab. Looks like the same basic kit, except for singlepiece cab/bed and grill/headlights. 😊 I took a hint from Chris/HPIGuy on the wheels, and trimmed off those huge tabs. Made mounting the tires much easier. 👍

[@TheAutisticModeler]

Thank you!! I have not watched HPI guys video on these yet. I’ll check it out. Thank you for the kind words

[@philipattard9018]

Great build looks awesome.l like the idea of putting the white wall tyres in warm water and pushing the rims from the back. Cheers

[@michaelcooke2559]

Very nice job. I really like doing this one as a service truck. It built into a really nice model. Those dash decals are great. Thanks for sharing.

Cool truck. I have to ask, when you painted the chassie, did you use flat black, or semi-gloss black?

[@TheAutisticModeler]

It’s a matte black. Thanks for watching!!
