[Metrodps]

OK since I am doing the Dante's Peak Suburban some one here needs to build the Red Dawn truck!

the Dante's peak burb is identifiable, I don't see that so much with this truck???

We do already have a "Jaws" Blazer (coming along nicely) and the "Dante's peak" Sub (hopefully goes as well). I could see a "Red Dawn" build, although I'm not sure how many people would recognize the end result without being told.

"Fall Guy"...definitely been done more than a few times. The biggest problem with that truck is which version do you build? How religiously do you follow some of the details? They used both the pre-81 and post 81 trucks throughout the show's run. More than a few still screen shots show massive engine relocation for better balance 'in flight'. As I see it, there are "Fall Guy" attributes, but they're pretty generic. Color, stance, the rest can be pretty much whatever.

So what other movie square body 'builds' are there?

 

[ryoken]

ugly as sin imo tho....

 

[COCHEV]

Can't think of any other chevys, but I've always like the FS Jeep from Tremors...

 

[CK5]

Didn't someone here do the "Last Action Hero" Blazer?

 

[tRustyK5]

Good thing Arnie folded that mirror in, or it mighta ruined his shot!

 

[COCHEV]

Looks like someone drug that thing through the trailer park...

 

[Metrodps]

But has anyone included the smuggler's compartment in the front of the bed that showed up in several episodes?

There is a link here to a group doing just that build with the stash. They even got Lee Majors to autograph the glove box. I hope to get that done to the burb when it is done.

I always liked the tremors jeep also.

 

[Metrodps]

I have to say when I first saw this I thought of the Tremors truck.

Only at $676 right now.
