My Project DuExt

i got to thinking about what i can do to my Cadillac EXT made by Jada. so i came up with the idea of a dually. as far as i know, no one has done this to a Jada

the inner wheels and the axles i am using (small upfront and the large one in back)

i had to cut the plastic thing where the axle goes so that the wheels will fit on the axle, i also drilled a whole straight through the inner rim

Damn that is wide. Nice project.

Ambitious project! I'm definetly gonna be looking forward to this one.

im most likely going to build the fenders myself, unless i can find a diecast with fenders that i like and will work

I was gonna ask if there were gonna be fenders, but I see youve addressed that.

Thats sweet! Very unique!

i just got news that Jada is designing a dually dodge ram.

That's different. I like it

Very creative. Not sure how I feel about it yet though. But nonetheless, I commend you for your originality.

sick bro

sick bro
Sick in the head more like it! haha i'm so funny





















What? I am. Kinda

not really

why dont you use dually fenders from a plastic 3500? they should work

http://i10.ebayimg.com/03/i/01/9a/bb/1b_1_b.JPG like that one

but that requires buying another car... A little epoxy putty is cheaper and will fit the exact width better.

like Gafoto said- i would have to buy another car. then after i take the fenders off, what am i going to do with the car? i dont build plastic models. and then i have to worry about the shape of the fenders being the right size, and shape. i suppose if i got a model like that really cheap, i would give it a shot

looks nice fly good job

i'll give u 5 bucks for it even after u cut the fenders

wow a whole 5 dollars!!!!!!!! thanks for the offer, but i am going to keep this and finish it off, im still working on the interior

not 2 bad. it could be worse. but the dually is a diffrent idea.

sweet fly. its nice and different at the same time. cant wait to see when its finished

wow a whole 5 dollars!!!!!!!! thanks for the offer, but i am going to keep this and finish it off, im still working on the interior

I think he means the plastic model kit :wink:
