Today I go over some tips and suggestions on how you can successfully remove and reinstall the rims on a GMP/Acme/Peach State made 1/18th diecast car. It's not as easy as I thought it would be, but with some patience and about a half hour it can be done. Hopefully it helps others out there; any Qs, just ask. Thanks for watching, commenting and PLEASE subscribe for more videos!

I found working with 1/8 aluminum Pop-Rivits spinning the rivit hub loose at the tip as a working hub makes great new axle pins for 1/18 diecast. Peen the end of the rivit slightly so the hub spins and stays in place. Then fasten that spinning hub to the wheel with a better adhesive, even add a dot of WD 40.The rivit pin can be cut to your needs and fastened inside whatever axle tube assembly one may have to work with. They are far stronger than any manufacturer too often rather nasty over-engineered wheel and tire diecast assemblies.

Trial and Error my friend lol And as far as the Nova story I completely understand that's how a feel about Mercedes. I remember the first one I rode in as a kid my mom had a friend who was a doctor back then who is now retired. And she had a 300 sl in the 80s and I fell in love with it at 6 yrs old and my prom car was a 600 Sel so they've been apart of my life.

Sounds very familiar! Before I ever bought my own car, I used to use my mom's old '79 Merc turbo diesel 300 beast of a sedan to go to g.f's houses etc. That car was a great car but an 18 wheeler ran up over the hood of it in the early 90s; it saved my mom's life. I still have the grill hanging here at my place, and a '68 280 grill. : )

Can you make a video on how to change an engine on a diecast. I have a gmp Camaro and a bought a 1/18 scale chevy engoine from gmp also to fit on it. It is the right size, just not sure how to change it and don't wanna mess it up.

Those tires come out from an gmp 1970 nova " overkill street fighter" very nice model. I bought the model and then I bought a set of the tire wheels set.
