Sorry don't have pics of it.. It will work ...:thumbsup:

BUT... Length is a little factor and ride heights on rear if you want a lowered look.. But if you want a regular look it should be add posts and line up wheels with a stretch.... Nothing a dremmel couldn't handle..

Or send it to Bill... He does a nice straight axle conversion...:p:thumbsup:

I am going to bid on the Mini Lindy Two Truck if the bidding don't go to
high. Them little model's sell for a lot sometimes I seen a tow truck go as
high as $45. Hoping to find a ruffed -up one for cheap for this swap.
Thanks Bill sounds like your the go to guy for custom t-jet's Cool.
I was good at 1/25 scale models but not so much on the smaller scales.
My t-jet scale auto repair shop came out good, Sill waitting for my
friend to take some pic's of it so I can show you guys. Well thanks agine. and keep your t-jet's on the gear side-up. Tom

TJDR, Here's a couple of pics they may help out. A T-Jet will fit inside, but it's tight. You can't lower it much because of the wrecker bed. You will have to build a front end extension. Hope these pics help. This is an old Mini Lindy I've had for years...RM

I did'nt think the body was that long, Even a slim-line chassis would be to short. Well I hope that I win it on ebay if I do win the tow truck I will go to (plan) B --Send to Bill (plan) C-- Get an HoModel or RRR Tow Truck. Tom
