Re: 1/64 Jada Cheyenne Body Swap

I've seen a couple on Ebay done that way. Only,I wanted to buy one of those to put it back to the hard to find original version. Finally,I bought the whole 5 Deep set to get one and will just sell off the other 4 cars loose,since they are also not available by themselves. I'm not really into the monster 4wd thing. If they made a more realistic 4wd,that would please me more. I pretty much did the body swap to get another version of a 2wd. Although I really like the 4wd I ended up with...even more than any they have offered. I have all kinds of ideas for the 2wds. Too bad you only have the Dub Cities to work with (other than the rare 5 Deeps) for decent wheels. I may do one Von Dutch swap (grey) with the orange & white 4wd.
I did this Hot Wheels 4wd swap using a Hummer H2 chassis:

I wish I knew how to swap wheels. That's limiting me on a lot of ideas. I have gotten Custom 69 Hot Wheels just to swap chassis,like that Hauling Asphalt one because you can find them for not a whole lot of money.
