Title: Sqaure body model kits
Post by: Tazman on December 05, 2016, 08:10:26 pm
My step son builds replica monster trucks, hand paints the lettering and graphics and then donates the truck to the Monster truck museum in Indiana. He is having a problem finding long wheelbase beds for these trucks. Most monster trucks are long beds and that is what he is looking for. Anyone have any lying around?

Thanks,

i know i have them somewhere. i made a pinata of my crew cab but ended up taking the back doors off so it would look like bigfoot.

I am referring to 1/24th scale plastic model kits. They have short beds but long beds are hard to find.

How about 3D printing them?

You can take the measurements I posted and get your 1/24. 1/24=.0416666666 then take that .0416666666x102=4.25. so the bed will be 4.25"
