One ton dually

[landman]

I'd like to make one of those preferably Dodge. I see Modelhaus has a wheel kit. I suppose if there aren't any dually kits there must be after market boxes. Where do I start to look?

AMT made a '94-'95 Dodge dually snap kit. What year Dodge are you after?

[landman]

Any year. I've had an 89, a 98 and currently own an 08. But it doesn't have to be like my 1:1.

Just checked the kit I have and it's actually a '96. One miff is no outside mirrors.

The "elephant ear" mirrors from the '88-style MPC/AMT Chevy 1500 kits can stand in for the Dodge mirrors with a little reshaping.

I haven't seen any 82-93 dodge trucks, I know there was someone working on one, he took measurements off my truck, but I haven't heard anything else. Maybe we need to have someone do a kit history of all the different makes of duallys in plastic.

As far as I know, the only dually kits were the Revell/Monogram '91 F350 glue kit, the AMT Snap Fast '95 Dodge Ram 3500 and the AMT Snap Fast '96 Chevy 3500. MPC had a dually kit based off of a regular kit but IIRC it was not a factory dully replica.

The MPC duallie was based on the '78 Chevy 4x4 annual kit, and was more of a custom truck than an actual accurate 1 ton. It was a short bed 1/2 ton with a Stepside bed with wider fenders and custom faired in tail lights, a pair of dual wheel adapters similar to what was in their '68-'72 Chevy truck kits, and a pair of extra Desert Dog tires. The balance of the kit is the same as the other MPC 4x4 Chevies, except that it only had the custom grille and a tunnel ram intake, no stock options for those. It also included a hood scoop identical to the one found in the Ground Pounder version.

Also for phantom duallies, Lindberg made the 1/20 Toyota and Nissan kits. As for some of the older Chevys, fenders from an early stepside are all that's needed to make a GM dually from the 70s and 80s, and from what I remember of the older Dodges, they just had flat large fender flares.
