here are some cutoms i wanted to show

[Super]

The lights look great T-Real. Wouldn't it be nice if they could be fitted with Micro LED's but I assume there would be no place for a coin battery as the trucks are too small.

I decided to modify nelson truckdela to have more details the red areas painted and the face 

mask the wheels

other side

the face painted with silver sharpie to look metallic 

all the parts painted a cream as a coat for the red

and after painting the wheels red and the front various times here it is 

side 

other side

and nelson (truckdela) with Byron (crankgear) 

you may be asking whats crankgear and truckdela? well those are the last names I gave to both Byron and nelson.

I understood "Truckdela" right away, but who's your namesake for Byron's "surname"?

byrons last name is a play on words based in actor Bryan Cranston see Byron crankgear its similar but yeah now you know

custom for today is a red van that's on the rc Thomas but on a truck base 

the van and the tomy one sad thing they didn't use this van often in the trackmaster range and even less In the fisher price era.

side

and back

the inside I modified it a bit took out the red pegs on the right as it wouldn't fit and I actually put it in reverse to make a better fit. Also so the front didn't have a gap that's only present on the end.

the base the back coupler is original and the hook is of the truck.

the original rc base I had to remove the wheels which was difficult as the axel was longer than usual so I had to force it out.

the terminals showed bit of corrosion 

and the van by itself 

I might make a hole for the coupling but it still works well without one it looks nice one negative is the roof but I have thought of making molds of this van and making multiples for bases in trucks. I know I used the wrong bottom but it works.

Nice work 👍

I made and engine powered Emily I used a flat drive unit that was heavily cut to fit and got some wires to use on the model 

the back 

the wires 

and the flat drive unit inside I hot glued the axel of the front wheel and added 2 weights on the front that fit and a weight at the back I might use wires that can move more freely but not now. works well but can go up hill. 

Thomas but better I got the non working rc Thomas added a unit from a Percy and the switch fits and a metal bit that makes it run 

back

and the unit. Its a sandwich fit as I have to go through the model to close it but works. I decided to give it a spare tomy Thomas face.

Quite ambitious making an Emily powered T-Real, nice work.

modified 2.0 McQueen with the yellow rim on the wheels and silver on some of the details 

the left hand side

and with my tar splat McQueen 1.0 the original model that has now the tar splat on the left hand side

the yellow looks better thin and will drill on to the model to paint the windows grey.

Makes those wheels 'Pop'
