OT kinda...51 model pickup

I bought a metal model of a 51 pickup f1 a few years ago. Well I've been painting it a few different colors over the years and I thought this was the coolest. The original color was a dark blue thats why the lettering is still in blue. Oh and yeah the door handles are missing...and the passenger side mirrior...I can't find them lol

I was going to go with this paint scheme for my real 51 but I decided to go ahead and fix the dents, paint, and all that....but looking at this model it makes me kinda wish I would've just went this route lol

That looks pretty cool. You did a nice job replicating the worn off paint and the oem primer showing through. No worries on the blue lettering; all the trucks came that way no matter what color they were.
