flared Mini pick up

Was preparing a Mini pick up for the Autograss proxy and the flaring got out of hand.

Not sure if its right for the proxy but I like it anyways.

What do you mean by out of hand? I think it looks just right! :)

That is going to be one mean looking pick-up!
:text-bravo:

And Munter - that GT-40 / Mini Pick-up cross is just plain wild! WOW!

Grabbed an adjustable wheelbase chassis from one of my other small cars and widened the track width, front and back.

Flares are closer to final shape.

With the body mocked on the stance is promising.

Flares done and body's mounted.

Stance is good.

Primer's next and I'm thinking a Camel yellow finish like one of my Bugeyes.

Then continuing the Camel livery theme with decals and blue paint contrasts on the wheels and headlights.

Gave it a run and it's good.

Primer's on. Flaws revealed but not too bad.

The rear drive stance is wrong for this car but I like it anyways.

Ditto , Dan, I think it looks great.
The camel colors should look super on it.

Sprayed on Tamiya Camel Yellow. Won't be hard seeing this on the track.

Decals, paint details and Future finish remains.
