ive got a Maisto chevy caprice and im gonna put the rear wheels from a Hotwheels Salen S7 & Super Tsunami(ricer supra) - theyve got different sized front and back wheels so i have to use 2 HW's
and ill have to cut away some of the plastic to fit them in.
this is also my first diacast ive modified :cheesy:

i dont have a camera but ive got a scanner so ill try and post up some pics later.

just gotta cut the rear out of the Super Tsunami. then cut the wheels. theyre too wide. and maybe raise the ride hight if i can figure out a way.
i already put the front wheels in to see what it looked like.
i cut the light pod off and now gotta file it down a little

:cheesy: :cheesy:

you know what you should do?buy the 1/64 scale revell lowriders(the one with the axles) and try to modify it to fit the caprice

wheels took over 1 maybe 1.5 hours to cut

then i had to cut the interior and the front so the wheels would spin

the back is to low so ive gotta fix that and then the front wheels. i need to fill in the inboard gaps to minimise the horizontal movement
