There is but it's not the correct year or style. The amt kits were 94-97's and 98-03 they changed the style. The front end is all different, interior is all new, and there was many more changes under the sheet metal. I could of started with the Sonoma kit, but since I need to make so much anyways it doesn't matter where I start lol.

Neat project. In fact, I like the model better than the rear truck (lower and meaner looking)! Keep posting the progress. Wanna see the final model.

we got hit hard today so I didn't have to work. So off to the model room I went! Found some seats that are similar to the '98 jimmy buckets I put in the 1:1. I will fill and re scribe the correct pattern. I took this pic during the swap, old seat on the left. more pics of the interior so far: Then I worked on the suspension, had to modify the front end so the wheels would tuck properly. I also lengthened the exhaust and removed the rear bump stops since I cut them off the 1:1 already.

Well here is an update on this project. I've got the cab pretty much finished, Just needs a little more fill work and add some trim for the rear windows to sit on. Now I've been working on the front end, I've got the front grill almost done, and the bumper is started. The bumper still needs alot of work. I have yet to start the headlight housings. And some interior parts and rear bumper from a revell 99 silverado, still need alot of work to fit and look like the 98+ interior in my truck. I might not use the door panels, I'll see. Also shaved the rear gate since that is a modification I want to do to the 1:1 eventually. I plan on finishing the cab and front end and then onto the interior.
