@Jim,
What a nice scale model, you even put it next to a scaled house

Thanks Flo!! 

Marc, yes! We even have little scale family members that live in the house! LOL!! 

It reminds me when I was young the fall guy. I love this truck. 

Spot on Flo!!! Thats exactly why I did it. I wanted one of these since I was 10 years old and the Fall guy paint scheme was a must for me. Also considered emulating the truck from Hardcastle and McCormack and the blue one from CHiPS. Started with a a truck that was already all brown so it was meant to be. Unfortunately the 82 GMC Sierra Grande is near impossible to find so I used this one (which is very close).

I also redid the interior and scrapped the anemic 5.0 litre engine in favor of a 350 CI Goodwrench crate motor with 290 HP and 355 FT/LBS of torque.

Modded a bunch of wheels.

See my Campervan tribute build.

the chevy 350 is the best. From what I know , you can replace the front grill. K series are rare in France. 
it's awesome jim. 
I have the gmc monogram in my logo collection.  

Not today but yesterday, I trimmed the escort body and made the leds for all lights. Light system still in reflexion as the tlu is in the lunchy.
warm white leds for main front lights. 

My Escort will be sprayed tomorrow. 

I'm waiting the paint

Today I painted and stickered my TL01 Escort. Decided to go with the mechanical speed controller set up. Got a nice mild period motor too.
