  1. Hello, my friends! Frend of mine wants to model and 3D print wheel disks for IronHide. He allready printed tyres. Now I need movie disk measures. Does anyone knows where to find them?
  2. A little more progress. Side mirrors were made out of 1,5mm plastic and 0,5mm soldering wire Mirror brackets are little complicated, then Big trucks have. PickUp doors have a slope at the top point. So I improved my old soldering device. The wire was localy flatten and drilled for rivets. Here I broken one of my 0,4 drill bits. I have got Cab roof Marker Lights from Fireball Modelworks. Thank you Joseph! But as Joseph said: "they are smallewr then Silverado's one. Compare to photo 4. I plan to use rectangular black adhesive tape as a rubber for marker lights. Visually it should make them larger. Note, that wipers were cut off. Finally I made cab handles from square styrene 1х1мм & strip 1х0,3мм.
  3. Let's continue: Sonoma's rear axle back part was horrible. New one was made of acril bead & styrol. I've casted Ford's rear axle, cut off the excess and added semi axles of profiles + steal spike. Let's glue it together... ...add epoxy putty... ... and get TopKick rear axle. It slightly longer, then must, but I will cut it after fit brakes and wheels.
  4. Note that it is 1:24 scale.
  5. Try Italeri's Peterbilt 378.
  6. But question about the width of wheel arches of bigger models is still open.
  7. Thanks to all of you, gents! Finally I have got it!
  8. Oh my good! Those seems on tanks, air cleaner - too visable.. I would prime the chassis before paint.
  9. Hundred precently aggree! I would love to see present time RAMs (2002-2017) and Silverados (2007-n.d.) too
  10. Thank you Jeff! That's good news! So I will wait and won't buy expensive rare kit.
  11. Hello, Gents! Does anyone heard any rummors about reissue of '68-72 Chevy PickUp (Cheyenne)? I have a plan to built 1968 -72 Chevy C60-80, or may be M60-80. The Pick Up is nice source for it. Blazer doesn't have roof & back wall.
  12. In that case, I hope the link will help:
  13. What have happened with Fireball Modelworks site? Does it moved some where?
  14. I guess everyone have the kit he wants to be reissued. I'm waiting for '68 Chevy Cheyenne. It haven't been reissued for long time. Plan to make 1967-72 C-40...C-60, using Cheyenne cab.... I love medium duty.
  15. Have got my order couple days a go! Thank you very much, Bill! As Brad said: "Super fast shipping & well packaged too!"
  16. Thank you Jim! Dual rear wheels arch width is - 96.1'
  17. Once again: Can anyone help me with DIMENSIONS OF 1999 SILVERADO DUALIE BED 8FT? I need the width of wheel arches to determine the width of rear axle now.
  18. Thank you! Coils will be cut off soon. It's a dry fit.
  19. Many nice and quik offers for the market with one base model. Well done!
  20. Let's continue! Rear springs Front springs and brackets Dry fit. Suspension parts are waiting for further work and some more parts. Searching for axles in my boxes, gave me this. Black parts are from Meng's Ford 1/24, red - are from GMC Sonoma 1/20. As you can see on photos above - rear axle should be square & rear part of reduction gear should be like Sonoma has. Front axle reduction gear looks similar to GMC, but shifted wrong side. I shoul turn the axle 180 degrees, cutting off springs.
  21. Still no news about reissue date?
  22. Hello Bill! I can see some nice parts, that we all were waiting for! I am your next international buyer! But it would be nice to note wheel size for GMC & Ford wheels. Good luck to your busyness!
  23. I made my lamp guards from Revell's one
  24. I know one person, who wanted to sell White 4000 resin conversion hood. He live in Riga.
