thanks OlBlue!
case was courtesy of my wife. in the early 90's she worked at Kmart, then the canadian K's closed & she brought this nintendo display case home. if you pull off the auto stickers, there's nintendo wrote all over it.
started making a topper, & some of the rear susp. in.

thinking 2 toning this one. wife says there's not enough color in the fleet & suggested yellow & white (gag!!?), but after looking at some yeller & white blazers,....maybe...

One swipe of the tail and totaled. ..wow! LOL. I like the wrecker idea and I have always liked yellow and white. My two cents

dieseldawg142 · 09-25-2014, 01:52 PM

yeah,.. like i said, my own fault thought, can't really criticize dawg when i let the big dummy with a 10lb tail come into the bedroom. just what i need, another clunker to re-do...still got this in the back of my brain like a splinter, hoping to git r done soon! maybe a big n little wrecker combo

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.

**Ol Blue K20** · 09-26-2014, 03:42 PM

I do but can't get them to load from the new computer. I'll post them when I find the setting problem

dieseldawg142 · 09-28-2014, 02:45 AM

that'd be super 'Blue!
got it standing on it's own, still needs shocks, tie rods, blah, blah...

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

**Ol Blue K20** · 10-10-2014, 09:02 AM

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.

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!

dieseldawg142 · 10-11-2014, 09:52 PM

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....
how i got it, except for the airdam & mirrors

Don't forget to crush it before you park on it...lol I think it's going to look great.

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
