Re: '64 chevy 2wd to 4wd

my wife got me the gmc wrecker and big game gmc last yr, but have'nt done nuthin' with them cause i couldn't find another donor at a reasonable cost.
wanted to do a crew outta the two, but one is 1/24 and one is 1/25. couple days ago was digging threw some crap and came across this old mangy cab from some project...and it's a 1/25 so it fits the wrecker cab. don't like the smooth rear cab either, found this rr cab wall from another junker

so the plan now is to crewcab the wrecker and break down and pay a stupid price for another big game so i can have a round eye crew, and get hawgs and t-cases for both trucks.went to a hobby shop 6 towns over prepared to pay a stupid price and wouldn't ya know it, they didn't have one...so to make it a not useless trip, i grabbed a '76 stepside sport.

since i want to put the wrecker body on a '60-'66 chev, i needed a box of some sort for it. after digging threw more junk (amazing what you can find after you've forgotten about it...) came across this stepper box. so now i will have a round eye crew stepper and a round eye longbox crew.
piecing junk together..

quick coat of primer to see how much more bodywork. also cut off that goofy visor and molded in "engine" will get a real visor and a real engine
