Re: 1/24 Square Body Chevy's

I found mine somewhere else but can't remember where. Either swap meets or antique stores. The also did stamped steel that were Blazers without the top, and passed off as shortbeds. Not the kind a guy into accurate attention to detail might want

Adding a camper or shell can really change the looks

Woah! Where do you find the camper shell/toppers in that last picture? I've got several 1:24 C10s but never seen a camper shell

Re: 1/24 Square Body Chevy's

built it using two monogram 1/24 blazer/jimmy shells but they are expensive to build with each shell costing around $80 apiece. so the shell/topper cost about $160. But i did resale the remaining parts on eBay and brought the cost down to $60. i built four shells to be prototypes for 3D PRINTING each shell is slightly different to fit on JADA'S square bodies and M2 MACHINES Square bodies. but unfortunately i do not have the capabilities to print them. So if anybody out there would be interested in printing these shells to sale to the public I would be willing to help them with acquiring the 3D IMAGE files for the four different sizes that i have built. two short beds and two long beds. Thank you for asking
