1/24 Diecast Wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I went and looked for some more wheels today. I found a couple of things out about these trucks. The Escalde wheels and S/10 wheels are different. I swaped the wheels from the Escalade for the S/10 wheels and they are smaller. I think the blazer looks better now, but stil needs some work. Here is how it looks so far. I got to cut out some more for the back wheels to fit like I want them too.
I think I will repaint it also at some point.

Cool buy.
I hope you plan on fixing it up. I would like to know what you used to fill in the groove on the fleet side bed. I bought some stuff today to try. Just wondering what would work best.

Where do I get that blazer and big wheels? And how did you lower it?

Where do I get wheels in the first blazer picture? I just got a red Wix 1969 Blazer, and want to put them wheels on it and slam it. Also I want to make it full R/C some day, and start doing body work to it right away.

Is there a source to buy just the rims for 1:24 th scale ..AND 1:18 th scale? I had found a place once that made Billitt Rims for 1:18 th scale but lost it.

Thanks in advance,

Wild
