I built this one box stock. The only thing I changed was the wheels so it would be more accurate.

Hey Toy, What a great build !! That Tri-color paint job wasn't easy and you pulled it off with great style ! Nice crisp lines. Let's start him up and see how he runs !! 10/10 in my book !!

I had also cut off the factory fender flairs. They were those ugly rubber ones that covered half the wheelwell.

That kit is still on my to-get list. Nicely finishel, especially since its one you dont see completed very often.

Thanks for the comliment guys. I have a framed pic of the real truck ( extra cab version ) catching air with Roger Mears behind the wheel. It cam out of the showroom of the firs Nissan dealer I worked for.The pic is about 23in x 33in. I had this kit when I was a kid and of coarse it never got built this way.
