A GOOD DAY to PLAY - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Here are the latest 1/25th, and 1/64 th trucks I played with all day. I wish you could up load multiple pictures off your hard drive instead of just one at a time.

1/25
This is the 1967 panel, from the POST OFFICE. I haven't decided on what color to paint it yet, but I do have my decal's made for it. When I finish it I will post with decals the finished product, just wanted to see what you all thought about it.

These are the two I played with just today while I was painting the panel and waiting for paint to dry.

I was watching TV when I got this idea for them and my son gave me one of his car's for the wheels and side pipes. Couldn't resist putting the two together. Notice anything about the front end of the one.
I have alway's liked the surf look with car's and trucks. LMK what you think. I'm going to load some more pictures on my webshot page if anyone is interested in them.
It's in my signature.

Somebody has to have something to say about them. They are ugly, pretty, cute, awsome something. To red not big enough something. I know there iis more critics out there.

Hey andy it took me a while but I figured it out. You stole the grill out of Switchback. What do I win? lol I like it though. I haven't gotten crazy enough to customize a hotwheels, too small a scale for me. I do my work in 1/24 and 1/25 plastic..

Yes that's it. I thought it worked out pretty good. While I was working on the panel I swaped them out. I like 1/24 and 1/25 better also. I need to find some surf boards out of the 1/24 Dorloren hotwheels, to put with one of my 1/24 trucks.

72 CustomCamper · 02-26-2003, 03:54 PM

Hey Andy, if you can find a model of the Garbage truck it came with 4 surf boards..

Where do you get those rims?? Or do you just buy a DUB machine and rob the rims off of them? Wish someone made dubs for 1:18 scale stuff.

Dig your rides though.

They do make them on the ESCALADE, and the new DODGE truck. You have to buy them but the wheels are pretty cool.
