Over 30 years ago I built a 1/32 1934 ford coupe and lost the custom wheels I put on it,for some reason I still had the stock wheels but since I chopped the top they look funny so I have been on the hunt for a custom set to put back on it,last month I picked up a goofy MPC 1904 Darracq that was supposed to be 1/32 that could be built stock or drag but turned out to be more like a 1/25 and the custom tires look too big so back on the hunt. I just got a Revell 1/32 Datsun p/u snap togather that has rims and tires that will work,now what to do with the rest of the kit and thinking about putting a slot car chassis on it.

Got it back togather with some wheels today,I built it back in 74 at the family property in Michigan and wanted to save it. I did a crude chop on the top and never put the glass in since I had nothing to cut it down and probably put the stock wheels on it,when I got home I must have found something more appropriate for a hotrod and used the front suspension from a 1/32 Triumph sports car but I found it apart so i must have needed the wheels for another. Its back togather and not coming apart again. Attachment Deleted |
