Thank You! Those horns went right into place with no problems until it came time to put that front bumper on and it took me a minute to figure out what was happening. The moment that I figured it out those horns went away. After I removed them everything lined right up.

??

Thank You! It would be great if they would provide the optional hood and intake setup. It certainly would give more options on how to build this. Thanks for watching!

Thank You! I am happy to hear that you prefer talking through the video. I was somewhat concerned about that because it does add length to the video and I wasn't sure if folks preferred that or not. Thanks for the feedback!

Thank You! I wanted to do this one in the box art colors but with a certain flair. That's why I chose the pearlized colors over plain paint. It really looks great sitting on my shelf. Thanks for watching!

Thank you! and thank you for liking the talking. I have come to realize that it draws the videos out a bit and I was wondering if that was causing any issues. Thanks again

For this being an MPC kit it surely didn't lack in the detail department. I did mess up the underhood paint job but other than that it turned out pretty well. This kit really does have a lot of potential to be almost anything that you can imagine. Thanks for watching!

I discovered after all was said and done ans the video was uploaded that I could have just shaved a tiny bit off of the front of the chassis and that would have created enough space for the bumper to fall into place. I wish that I would have discovered this beforehand. I don't remember if I shaved down the carbs to gain clearance or not as I did this build almost a year and forty builds ago. Thanks for the advice and the great comment and for the Sub!

Thank you! I'm glad that you liked it.

I'm glad that you found valuable information in my video. I try to point out the good and bad while I'm building in the hope that others will know what to watch out for when they build theirs. Thanks for watching!

Thank you! I was wondering if I was doing to much talking, or not enough... It causes the videos to go to long and I haven't found a way yet to keep the length down and still convey a message or thought to you the viewer. Thanks for adhesive advice. I have only ever used the orange tube and the Mod Podge. I did use CA glue for a while but discovered that I didn't care to much for it. Thanks again!

Thank you! and Thank You for watching!

Thanks for the great reply! I have, like always, do a Google search for the real vehicle before starting a build. I look at the interior, exterior, the undercarriage, and multiple engine compartment angles. I don't recall seeing anything that represent that taillight decal. Everything looked just like I built it with just the red lens over simulated lights. It's all confusing what that decal was for but in the end it turned out good.

I use the orange tube glue on pretty much everything with one exception and that is the Mod Podge Dimensional Magic. I use the Mod Podge for doing around windows and sometime when I am gluing on headlight lenses etc. I always clean paint from surfaces where I am going to glue because the glue adheres to bare plastic better. As far as recommending a glue... Well, there are a plethora of available glues on the market for doing this hobby and unfortunately I only have experience with the two that I have previously mentioned.

@@scaleautoguysworkbench Feedback appreciated, thank you

Thank you! and thanks for the Sub! This one actually turned out better than I thought it would.

There has been a re-pop of this kit. The new one has a green car on the box. The kit with the red car on the box is still available on Ebay starting at around $20.00. I believe the the Superbee is also available there as well. I have no idea what the price for that is.

Thank You and Thank you for the Sub! Cheers!

Thanks! This color was actually purchased for another future build. I thought that it would look good on this Bronco and just went with it.

Thank you! Comparing me to Michelangelo is quite an honor but I'll take it LOL. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching!

Thank you! I like to get the colors somewhat coordinated together.

Thank You! It did turn out quite well.

Thank You! I flip flopped on whether I should go with the white or the tan like I used on the seats. I went with the white because of the white decals.

Thank You!

Thank you. The tire carrier on mine flops a little as well. I put an extra coat of paint on the pins, let it dry, and then pushed it into brackets. It's still movable, but the extra paint tightens the clearance of the pins and provides some resistance so that it doesn't just flop with the breeze. Don't know how long that will last, but it works for now.

Thank you. This kit went together really nice, but there are just enough challenges to keep it interesting. That red paint was originally bought for another upcoming build. I thought that it would look great on this one as well.

Thank you!

Thank you. I thought that they would.

Thank You! I actually bought that color for another build but I thought that it would look good on this one as well.

Thank You! Revell does make another Bronco with a half cab and a dune buggy. It's kit number 85-7228 and is listed at the Revell website. I do not have that kit right now. I have quite a few kits as well and I couldn't tell you every kit in the stash. It's a disease but one that I am happy to have.

@@scaleautoguysworkbench oh absolutely. I know I’ll never be able to build them all before I depart this existence but I just keep buying. No regrets

Thank You! This was a fun build as well. I had zero issues with it that was the kits fault. It's rare these days to get a kit that is basically flawless.

According to a few searches that I conducted the side marker lights were mandatory in 1970. Here's what I discovered through one of my searches, "Initially, the regulation for 1968-1969 required lights or reflectors, which is why some cars in 1968 had amber lights in front and red reflectors in the rear (1968 Ford Motor Company cars, for example). Chrysler vehicles used lights in 1968 and reflectors (on most models) for 1969. This regulation was later amended to require lights and reflectors on all vehicles made on January 1, 1970 or later, which is why most lines had changes to their side marker lights for the 1970 model year." Changes to the federal law in 1970 made it a requirement to have marker "lights" on all vehicles. So, you are correct but the lights were optional in 1968 not required until 1970.

It looks kind of funny actually because of the size difference. They both look good together but just a tiny bit odd...

Thank You!

Thank you! I like the contrasting colors and it turned out better than I had imagined

Thank You! My videos of late have been running longer for some reason. This build turned out better than I had thought that it would. Happy Saturday

I wanted to use the bigger tires that were once in this kit but they were obviously more useful to the previous owner. Sometimes, you just have to do what you can with what you have. LOL

This has become one of my favorite trucks. The only thing that I wasn't to fond of was the flimsy front suspension pieces. Getting the proper separation between the paint colors was a little bit of a challenge due to the curvature of those fat fenders in the front. The bed on this thing turned out so good that I almost forgot that I put it together. Overall, this was super fun to build and that's why I'm happy that I accidentally bought two of them. The next one... Well, it might not be a box stock build...

For this build I used Touch N Tone gray primer on everything and for the main color on the cab, sleeper and the hood I used Createx Airbrush Colors Pearl Blue. I then used Createx Gloss Top Coat for the clear. All other colors were assorted craft paints from Apple Barrel and Folk Art. Hope this helps...

Thank You! As far as my brushes go... Well, I have about half a dozen brushes that I use consistently. I clean them after every use. When I am using acrylic paints I just clean them with tap water. I keep an old water bottle on the bench that has tap water in it. I use the cut off bottom half of an old water bottle to clean my brushes in. I just pour some water into it and clean my brushes that way. When I am using Testors paints I use mineral spirits to clean the brushes in. Sometimes, I will go from acrylic paint to Testors enamel with a quick clean in between the different paints. When the paint is still wet on the brush it will come right off and only takes a few seconds to clean it and I have found it to be a good habit to clean the brush when I am finished with one color. I reuse my brushes as long as possible and my brushes are old and just about worn out. I recently bought some new ones at Hobby Lobby that I plan to start using soon. Thanks for watching and subscribing and I hope that this response helps you.

@@scaleautoguysworkbench mineral spirits huh. I'll keep that in mind. 90 percent of the time I'm using the Testors paints in the little glass jars. I've used plain water, water and dish soap, and even rubbing alcohol in my little rinsing bowl. I just felt like the plain water never got the job done with the Testors paints. I've also got a bad habit of leaving paint on brushes while I work on another part of a different color, with the intent to come back to it shortly. But sometimes I forget and the paint dries on. Thanks for the advice I appreciate it!

Thank You!

Thank You! I am glad that I helped to inspire your build! I agree that this kit would look fantastic in red and I'm sure that your lady friend is going to love it! Thanks for watching!

Thanks! I figured that if I was going to go with the box colors I would make it a little bit fancier. Thanks for watching!

I did a 70/30 (approximately) with the Createx reducer. It can be sprayed straight from the bottle, but I was using a #3 tip at the time, so I thought that I would cut it just a little.

Thanks for the info. I appreciate it.

That Chevy was messed up straight out of the box of parts that I bought many years ago. It was partially broken in half and had no other parts to go with it to effect a rebuild. So, that is why it is being used in this role. Besides all of that, if I wanted to build it, all I would have to do is strip it for the 20th time and build it. I already have two built 58's in my collection, so I'm not missing this one.

Thank You! I have found that doing a wood like accent isn't really that difficult. After priming I laid down two coats of Apple Barrel Real Brown (acrylic craft paint) with a medium width brush. Pulling the paint in a straight-ish line with the "grain of the wood". It usually turns out quite well. Thanks for watching!

Thank You!

Thank You! I used the Createx Airbrush Colors Gloss Top Coat on this one. It's an interesting clear as it doesn't need to be thinned down to spray it and it has a decent shine to it. It's not 2k or anything but still looks pretty good.

@@scaleautoguysworkbench thanks for answer my question
