OK Now that the Chevelle is done.
Its back to the Big Rigs.
Even though this site is mainly logging trucks this may be useful to some who want to build an o/o style logging truck.
Most drivers want a little detail to there truck in the real world anyway.
Most of my builds start out with things like this anyway.
I drilled the kit lug nuts in the center with a small drill bit.
Then I pushed small stainless straight pins through the holes.
Then put the glue on the back side in the groove to hold them in place.
And let them dry for a day or more.
The center caps are [Recollections-Brads from Hobby Lobby.]
Held in place with Zap Glue.
This is the first step I will update it on the next step.
I also will be adding valve stems.
These will be cut off flush once they dry.
The inside rim will be trimmed off flush also because it will not go inside the groove because of the pins.
However both rims will fit flush together like they are suppose to
