Bought a HW custom 71 el camino. Couldn't resist the temptation to design it out of a Lego :)

This looks so cool! The amount of details is really nice and it looks like a proper workhorse :)

Thank you!

Reminds me of a Sienna!

I tried to make Alphard / Welfire :) but in this scale they will look like yes)

This is really impressive!

I'm curious, though--the width is what I would call eight studs wide, but you call it eight pins wide.  Is there a subtle difference I'm not picking up here, or are the two terms synonymous?  Because I've never encountered the "pin" terminology before (I mean, I know what a pin is as a Lego/Technic object, but I've never seen the word "pin" be used as a Lego unit of measure).

Somehow I did not think where I got such a designation. 
Maybe because I sometimes try to build something from the Lego Technic and look at the communities associated with it :) 
I understand that in relation to the Lego System it is more correct to consider the dimensions in the "studs". 
But in fact the size is the same - let's leave my designations as they are :))

p.s. 

although I might change in the future.

It’s sad Lego doesn’t release most of those pieces in metallic colours (yet), great job on these renders!

This is Lego - you can replace it with light bluish gray and it will be about the same :)

Thanks for the explanation--I hope it didn't come off as me suggesting your terminology was in any way wrong (and if it did, I apologize), I just wanted to make sure I fully understood what you meant and that there wasn't some subtle difference I was missing.

The mudflaps are great attention to detail and really add flair to the truck!
