I do like that truck. is that metal flake, or is the paint just that glossy.
A side note: if you take rubbing alcohol and rub down a model (either a cotton ball or a spray bottle) it will have a flattening effect and fade out the paint. But, if you have used a chalk-based rusting powder, it will also draw the color out of that. If you take a pint of rubbing alcohol and add about a tablespoon of India ink, you can put a 'junk yard wash' over the model, too - you know, that uneven fade and 'glaze' that cars that have sat around a awhile get? I haven't figured out how to get a brown tint to the alcohol that will stay yet. Working on that... But, the india ink wash will highlight the lows and highs and make some of the details stand out (diamond plate, transmissions). The uneven alcohol fade is a good starter for rusty spots over damage or dents...
