I like the looks of that one much better!

Hey Frenchblue72, is there any chance that the 69-70 grille on that blazer would fit on the dub city truck? If so i'm going to have to find one of those banks and swap them. thanks in advance.

FRENCHBLUE72 08-19-2003 06:10 PM

Sorry the wix bank is to narrow.

That sucks..... :(

FRENCHBLUE72 08-20-2003 01:00 AM

Some one on here got a pannel off of e-bay awhile back . I can not remember who ????

FRENCHBLUE72 08-20-2003 01:01 AM

Anyone know if the wheel's just pull off or how would I go about putting new one's on???

Hotrod70C10 08-20-2003 01:49 AM

hey frenchblue72, the wheels just pull off. Turn them just a little while holding the opposite wheel. they will pull off after a few twists. The rod they are mounted on looks like a file. hope that helps oh, I used regular model car wheels that I had from a buick gsx. I'm thinking about finding some different wheels and some big wide rear tires for it though. Oh if you use the standard little model car wheels and tires you will have to make a new rod that is longer for the wheels to mount onto.

I like 'em except for the funky-ass "Homeboy" wheels :)

i took the bed off mine and dont see how to lift it... how do you lift/ lower these?

trinic 08-20-2003 04:31 PM

here's a few pics of my diecast
 
I need to replace the wheels with some nice ralleys......

Truck use to be the silver one, but I sanded and filled in the trimming, etc. Tried to match color of my truck...
Enjoy.

Lifting it up is easy but you can only do it just a little bit. If you pull the "axle" out of the truck and run it in the slot under where it actually goes. You might have to drill it out a bit though. If that doesn't make any sense i'll get some pics of it for you.

rambler 08-20-2003 06:00 PM

Sounds like we might need to do a another board.. the Dub city, 1/24 or 1/18th, scale kit truck board....

Chevy_68 08-20-2003 07:17 PM

yo trinic how did you fill in the moulding bondo or whati doing the same thing on mine makeing it look how i want my truck to look like when its done

FRENCHBLUE72 08-20-2003 09:30 PM

Thank's for the help guy's .. Trinic look's like you got some time into that . Look's good.

trinic 08-21-2003 08:46 AM

bondo, bondo, time, time
 
I used the bondo that comes in a squeeze bottle (ready to use). Took me a while to try and get the cracks filled in. Sanded, primered, sanded, primered, etc... Didn't come out perfect, but It was my first shot at it.....
Thx,

PS- As you can see in the first picture I tried to make the cab a small window (like my truck), but the bondo didn't hold up.....
