No camera here but I've got a fleetside yes fleetside prostreet looking truck (used an S10 bed) not painted yet and a c-notched and "bagged" stepside thats white. Damn I need a camera. Been having a good time playing with these things though.

REPO1 · 10-14-2002, 09:22 PM

Not "custom", I only painted it to look like my truck and have it hanging from my rear view mirror. I know there is someone on here who slammed one, though.

billogna · 10-14-2002, 09:49 PM

forgot the pic, duh

Andy4639 · 10-14-2002, 10:13 PM

I'm working on a 1/24 truck now. I have filled all the side moldings in and hope to sand it down tommorow, to get ready for paint. I will post pics when I'm done.

I'm using bondo putty in a tube I found at wal-mart pretty easy to use just spread it out and let dry, then sand. I have never used it before though I'll have to see how well it works. I will try and post pic's tomorrow.

REPO1 · 10-16-2002, 10:38 PM

Awesome guys!!

VDOG · 10-17-2002, 07:20 PM

Ok I feel like an IDIOT! Little did I know you guys have these Hot Wheel trucks. It was my first time seeing them. Someone please go back and delete my previous thread! LOL
DOH!!!

chevy2racr · 10-17-2002, 11:20 PM

I'm working on a crewcab duelly rihgt now, I think my concept is good.... but it'll prolly suck, its an effort though...

jay-dawg · 10-18-2002, 01:32 PM

Kenneth,
Did you use another set of front wheels for the back wheels? I was thinking of using one as a parts truck and use the front wheels in back to tuck. I know the other way is to cut the fender and part of the bed. I don't have a dremel but I do have a cut off tool. I like that power front windshield that you have on there...lol

jay

oh...I'm still trying to find that s10 hot wheel.

Nope, those are the back wheels. I just narrowed them with a piece of sandpaper so I wouldn't have to cut the bed. And, yeah, the windshield wasn't glued in on that picture and it fell down... oops.
