I finished this up a couple of days ago . It's basically box stock except for the scoop from a Zinger , fabricated strips on the tailgate , and the license plate .
I also tubbed the rear to move the tires inboard and relocated the front axle to center the tires in the openings .
Paint is Tamiya TS - 52 Candy Lime Green .

I hope you like it !

Thanks and I agree completely ! I just never cared for the stock tires in the Deal's Wheels kits and this is one way to improve their appearance .

Love the color, and your foiling is "PRISTEEEEEN". All your detailing is gorgeous, and the Surf Board fits the build perfectly - Really great build Bob.

I was never a fan of the giant hood scoop they stuck in the Gomad kit, so good idea swapping it! Love the yellow tint to the rear glass too, and the blue dots on the taillights
