Stretching a DCP Truck with Rockin H

Different truck hobbyists will stretch a toy model to look like a real one. Not uncommon to see the toys tricked out with over sized sleepers, chrome and all sorts of accessories. My favorite thing to do is make end dump grain trucks which used to be very common but have given way to semis. Visit www.rockinhfarmtoys.com

Yes it would. I use spray cans but I know other builders that use air brush with success. On resin or plastic products I use Krylon plastic primer paint, then my preferred color. Thanks for posting your question.

I have not repainted any DCP trucks (like the cabs in the video), to get those looking like they do from the factory is near impossible. That said, I will repaint other brands of trucks. I have used Krylon, Testors, and TruColor with success. One tip, spend money on paint, it is worth it. Thanks for the question.

You are welcome, glad to help.

DeereFarmer09, the process would be much the same. Easier IMO. Cut out all the metal between the frame rails first. The frame rails will be pretty thin when you are done. Cut and stretch like a DCP when step one is complete. Rectangle tube works well as it slips right over the frame rails with ease. Let me know you get along.

Good day were can I get the steel that you used to stretch the truck warhs a inch cm or mm

you should add the part where you trim everything to make it fit so that people understand what to do.
