El Camino to lifted wagon conversion | BUILD・PAINT・WEATHERING

I was challenged to convert a Hot Wheels die cast El Camino into a lifted station wagon. This video includes the painting and weathering steps, too. I scratch built the rear topper and the suspension is built from styrene! It is set in the world of the Post apocalyptic tabletop game Gaslands! I hope you enjoy the video and that it is useful for you in your hobby! Check out some of my other builds and subscribe to the channel to see more custom creations!
