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.
thanks just finished my first truck get it out look on Toy Farmin' LLC Presents Farm Toys & More and you should see in the truck section dcp k100 thanks again
That was someone replying to me. YOu can check out my RUclips page for some model vids...and my facebook page is under a differen name.. the truck stuff is lagging. If you want to see more truck stuff hit me up on Instagram. I think I just hit 7000 followers. I noticed a video I put up last night hit over 13000 views. My IG page is devoted to bigrigs
Whewwww. I am uncertain where those exist. I have been to the National Farm Toy Show once and it seems like I seen some there. that is the best I have at the moment.
Nice to have a shop.. I just do it on a table top.. 1 suggestion though,, On a real truck a driveshaft that long would twist & break,, they have mid joints on them about 1/2 way down the frame.. Might be a good addition.
Glad I could help.. In the middle of turning a greenlight IH into a concrete block hauler. tri/axle with an overhead boom. with flotation tires on the front. It's hard to get channel & stuff around here, there are no hobby shops, & hard to figure out sizes on E Bay.. LOL
can u do a video on how to add custom kenworth/peterbilt fenders to a dcp? I have a red transtar ii that needs fenders cuz I have it hooked to a mac dump trailer and I don't need rock chips on my trailer. lol. thanks.
Carson Binaural check our www.rockinhfarmtoys.com. In the photo galleries I have several COE trucks with grain beds on them. Also on Facebook. Thanks for asking.
The cabover is an old run, I am not sure where a guy would buy that one anymore. Google DCP IH Transtar II, you might get lucky. They are all 1/64 scale.
Here you go astore.amazon.com/rhl06-20/detail/B0019N7VV8, this simple saw will do it or a dremel. Even a hack saw will work but they are a bit clumsy to use being so big. Thanks for asking.
I also use a hacksaw blade with tape wrapped around one end so as to not cut your hand up. LOL The exacto saw blades wear out fast plus a little expensive.
Cesar, thanks for the question. All my models are 1/64th scale. The IH CEO you asked about is an old run of trucks and harder to find. However, I found one at Stamp-n-toys.com. Good luck and post your cool creations at the Rockin H Facebook page.
I received my first Dremel as a gift. I did link to one in my Amazon store through. There are a ton of places online to buy them. Good Luck. astore.amazon.com/rhl06-20/detail/B002L3RUVG
Cool ,ive never seen these trucks ?

I have used pencils to stretch out a truck before take some metal duck tape around the pencils and jb weld to the frame then paint the tape great job
I've used both fine tooth blades and currently have a course or ripping type blade right now in my band saw. Both work fine.

U can also use pop cicle sticks to stretch a dcp to just like I done mine
I'm David creith from Eugene Oregon and I would really like to know where you find 1/18 scale or bigger diecast models specifically of semi trucks
Whewwww. I am uncertain where those exist. I have been to the National Farm Toy Show once and it seems like I seen some there. that is the best I have at the moment.
what type of material and glue do u recomend using on a solid frame truck?
Glad it helped. If there is another video I can make please let me know.
Is there a special ban saw blade you need to use?
You are right and thanks for adding this tip.
Thank u for posting this vid it really helped me out
Nice! And very creative.
Glad they helped. If you have ideas for more let me know.
Nice to have a shop.. I just do it on a table top.. 1 suggestion though,, On a real truck a driveshaft that long would twist & break,, they have mid joints on them about 1/2 way down the frame.. Might be a good addition.
Thanks for the comment. I had not considered that detail.

Yes I can. Great idea and thanks for watching.

Could you make a video of what the cab over looks like with the Grain bed on it ?
Carson Binaural check our www.rockinhfarmtoys.com. In the photo galleries I have several COE trucks with grain beds on them. Also on Facebook.
Thanks for asking.
thank you so much
Do you do this as a hobby?

+Roy Herring Check out my FAQ page. I listed all the dealers I use to find these trucks. Thanks for asking. www.rockinhfarmtoys.com/ask-rockin-h/
What scale is those trucks and where did you buy that cabover
The cabover is an old run, I am not sure where a guy would buy that one anymore. Google DCP IH Transtar II, you might get lucky. They are all 1/64 scale.
Eric Haselhorst is your for sale
question: if u dont have an electric saw, how would u cut the frame in half??
Here you go astore.amazon.com/rhl06-20/detail/B0019N7VV8, this simple saw will do it or a dremel. Even a hack saw will work but they are a bit clumsy to use being so big. Thanks for asking.
I use an exacto saw blade & handle, with an exacto miter box. works pretty good, takes a little while ,
I also use a hacksaw blade with tape wrapped around one end so as to not cut your hand up. LOL The exacto saw blades wear out fast plus a little expensive.
How to buy this type of truck model from
Stretched trucks can be bought on ebay pretty easy.
Ebay 1/64th scale diecast.. Spec cast, PENJOY, DCP, TONKIN Many to choose from.
What scale is your red truck and where did you buy it?
Cesar, thanks for the question. All my models are 1/64th scale. The IH CEO you asked about is an old run of trucks and harder to find. However, I found one at Stamp-n-toys.com. Good luck and post your cool creations at the Rockin H Facebook page.
All of the DCP models are 1/64
Thanks for the question. Yes all my work is in 1/64 at this time.
+Rockin H Farm Toys That was a statement, not a question. Lol😂
There are quite a few of the IH coe transtars on ebay around $50. as well as conventional Transtars from the 70's
Where did you get the dribble
Not sure what you mean by dribble. Can you clarify?
Your little handheld drill
I received my first Dremel as a gift. I did link to one in my Amazon store through. There are a ton of places online to buy them. Good Luck. astore.amazon.com/rhl06-20/detail/B002L3RUVG
