We'll see if it works now.... These were taken in 1990 at Super Chevy Sunday at Sears Point Raceway. I almost got killed because I got second place in the square body class with a truck that worked for a living. It's black with blue pearl. It was one of the trucks used a the 1984 Indy 500. I don't remember if it was one of 13 or 17.

NIIICE! sharp lookin' wrecker Dale!
like how even your dolly's are polished. pride in your ride.

been a little slow on the blaze. winterizing the house, fixing the ol'lady's truck...
her midgate window regulator took a crap, got some cool parts, tubing, cables for a wrecker, & i see a 4 link coil over in my future with them 4 springs...

Thanks, I liked that truck. If you have to fix it, it's only fair that you get some cool parts out of it. LOL

dieseldawg142 · 10-09-2014, 07:32 PM

well, i guess the wife is not the only girl in the world that likes me, one of her co-workers cleaned out her basement & gave me these

the '55 & the vette are new, somebody primered the chicken body & the bimmer has a nice coat of red on the body. the vette body has a huge factory flaw in it (missing the dr. rocker & part of the fender...quality control??) but it's a 2in1 kit so it has a butt-load of cool parts that i can use, i dont have a an '80's 'bird so i will keep it, already got 4 '55's & there's no space on any of my shelfs for a euro-mobile, so i will prob. trade them.

also got this "thing" from her too, i dont do 1/12 or foreign, so i dont know what i'll do with this. it's un-built & had this hot wheel size 300sl in the box. dont know if it was included or someone threw it in there.

It looks like you'll have plenty of stuff to keep you busy this winter..lol..the blazer is looking good. I spy some yellow on the dash, I like it.

Hi dieseldawg

You're just a model making work horse.

I may not talk a lot, but I love watching your trucks come together.

dieseldawg142 · 10-11-2014, 09:52 PM

yeah, it would be different, thats for sure. already gathering parts. it's a do'er!

and yeah i know what i said about furrin cars, but i was looking at the Big Money Waste & it turns out to be a motorized kit, bonus! start looking threw the box for the motor-not there, bummer. started reading the instructions, bottom of the first page "MOTOR NOT INCLUDED PLEASE PURCHASE SEPARATELY" huh??
so i figure i will do a quick curbside of it using only ONE color on the whole kit, should only take a few days. then i will park my blaze on it....

dieseldawg142 · 10-13-2014, 07:22 PM

printed up some license plates for it, not sure what set i'll use....

**Ol Blue K20** · 10-13-2014, 07:37 PM

I like them all.

as promised, hunk 'o junk. what a crap model, no detail anywhere, no nothing...tried to go all black, but the taillights snuck in some color.
didn't detail it at all, didn't even try to do nothing to it, it's just a car...last look like this. as Dale said, crush it & park the blaze on it
pretty gumby...(lookin at them tires i think i need to dust off my bench)

I may be weird but I like the yellow. Maybe it would settle down with the middle section on the body painted white....

dieseldawg142 · 10-22-2014, 12:55 AM

yeah, your right OlBlue, white down the middle would be nice, dont have the patience rite now....
enough of this car bs, back to trucks for me

Hi Guys,

I've slowed down on forums for now, life keeps getting in the way, long boring story.

Anyway, I have several more 8th scale motorcycle models, but I haven't found the time to work on them yet.

I want to modify one into the "Captain America" chopper and I want to make a Harley Drag bike out of another,one of these days..

I've been tinkering with a Tamiya on-road racer (TT-01E Datsun 240Z) and another semi tractor truck, a Tamiya Globe Liner Kit.

I might do a thread if either of you are interested.

I love the Blazer dd. It reminds me of the RC Blazer I built a few years ago.

dieseldawg142 · 10-23-2014, 10:51 AM

heck yeah, i do need to throw some white down the sides.
good lookin' blaze Jeffro!
