03 1955 Chevy 2-Ton Stake Body Part 03

Scratch Building the bed stakes Assembling the horribly designed body What I'm about to say is my opinion only: The body of this model comes in seven pieces and is a real pain to assemble. It is a very poor design and no matter what I did I couldn't get everything to fit well, even after dry fitting the parts. It's a good thing I was planning to make this an old beat-up farm truck otherwise I would have already thrown it in my box of parts that can be salvaged for other things. I've assembled some fairly bad models from bad molds, but this one is over the top. Atlantis...it's time to retire this kit because you have more issues with it than just worn out molds. 1955 Chevrolet 2-Ton Stake Truck (Body) Update on my build of the '55 Chevy 2-Ton Stake Body TIME LINE: ---------- Segment 01 00:00 to 00:53 My voice introduction 00:53 to 01:36 Introduction and opening title 01:36 to 13:02 How I made a jig(s) for making the bed stakes 13:02 to 17:03 All the parts spread out with commentary 17:03 to 21:23 Description of how the body pieces are supposed to be assembled 21:33 to 24:51 Body assembled and major seam gaps 24:51 to 27:11 Wooden parts painted but not fully finished 27:11 to 29:33 Tires and wheels and closing remarks 29:33 to 34:43 Bible reading for this video Luke 21:10-36 34:43 to 34:58 Outro Scalemates Info: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/atlantis-h1401-55-chevrolet-2-ton-stake-truck--1307642 Brand: Atlantis Title: '55 Chevrolet 2-Ton Stack Truck (Body) Number: H1401 Scale: 1:48 Type: Full Kit Released: 2020 New Decals Barcode: 0850002740417 (EAN) Packaging: Rigid box (Top Opener) Molded in Blue Plastic MUSIC CITATIONS Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 -------------------------------- News Theme 2 by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Artist: http://audionautix.com/

The '55 Chevy Stake Body is finished; at least as far as I'm concerned.

I actually had a good time building this kit even with and maybe because
of all the fit issues I had with it. I'm not sure if all of these kits
are as bad as this one or if I got the lucky one? :-{D.

I used it to test out some things that I've been wanting to try especially
when it comes to rusting and weathering.

I'd love to hear comments and I would really like to hear from modelers
who are good at doing rust and dirt. I'm open to any and all criticism and
suggestions.
