The bucket seats are from Hobby Design and the center console was scratchbuilt from sheet styrene. A straight pin was used as a shifter and I painted the "8" on it to make it look like an 8-ball.

Thanks guys! The color is Splash Paints Valencia Red and the wood bed was made with real wood veneer. The center plank is a piece of veneer trim and the metal strips are from a Detail Master wood bed kit.

Knowing how tough the front is to build, this is extra stunning! Love the colour, the interior, the bed and the overall quality. WOW!!

All around a beauty. I like the look of the new chromed bumpers as well as the costum center console. So nice details. The seats an wheels matching completely good to the whole truck. Well done!
