Hey all, well, I got another off the bench. Had this in the stash for years, Aoshima Hilux "High Rider". As with nearly all Japanese kits, everything fits well.
Went for cleanliness over detail. (But I had to put some life into the front lights.)
Just a basic build, Tamiya Candy Lime Green with Pearl clear.
Tinted windows, a couple of seats from the Pro Street Superbee, and I added a spare tyre and exhaust tip from my parts bin. Otherwise OOTB. All comments welcomed, Enjoy.

It's a great chassis to use for other projects. I put one under this 40 Delivery, with a hemi in it.

That's a mighty fine looking truck Bruce. You're right about the Japanese kits. Tamiya, Fujimi and Aoshima all have it goin' on.
