bandit1 Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 I am in the midst of modeling an 04' Chev dually. Here is where i am at right now with mock up...for my plans are for a crew cab not an ext cab. it will sport a Duramax if i can find pics and info on....which ill hunt for first!... Here is a mock up shot and here im trying to figure out the best way to modify the dually bed to have the fender like whats below with that round curve in it? Comments and criticizm welcomed! 73's till later!
jeffs396 Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Sounds like a challenge Sean! You've got some work ahead modifying the front to the '03-up style, and with the rear fenders. Even the crew cab conversion will be a bit tricky with the Escalade lower door mouldings requiring removal! You can do it, and we'll be watching!

dirtracer2448 Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 I'm watching closely because I have a similar build in mind: my dad's 1:1 that is no longer with us. I like what I see so far
bandit1 Posted March 1, 2013 Author Posted March 1, 2013 Starting to look more like an P/U truck than an Escalade now!...Grafted the engine bay into the escalade but still have to work on the firewall section...gotta fix the C pillar on the other side to get it better!...then work on the front fenders begin!

Platerpants Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 ive always wanted to do one of these but those chevy duallys get expensive on ebay now. my bro found 1 for 10 and snatched it up then on amazon he found the drag truck version for 20 so he bought that too.
tyrone Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Cool project... Edited March 9, 2013 by tyrone
Platerpants Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 bed figured out maybe? the resin f150 dually bed fenders look like that era's fenders. not perfect but closer. http://www.rocketfin.com/resin_product.cfm?id=4532
