I also wanted to do this. Only problem I have is that I don't have an extra Tracks, I have an extra Battle Ravage and would rather avoid having a convertable for Wheeljack. I'll check both figs when I get home and let youy know about a head swap. I was going to cast a head from my son's wheeljack. I also started having doubts aboust using Tracks and was wondering if Sunstreaker wouldn't make a better Wheeljack.

The heads look like they'll swap just fine. The piece that folds over for Track's chest may get in the way of Wheeljacks side pieces, but you've probably already considered removing it.
I've seen someone else's Sunstreaker as Wheeljack and it looked really cool. I reversed the hands on Battle Ravage and was eyeing how the bakside would work for Wheeljack. He almost seemes too wide. And I'm still not sure how I feel about the legs. I still may try this though.
Looking forward to seeing yours. By the way, what are your plans for What will be left of Wheeljack? I'm looking for a Mustang for another project.

Just a suggestion on your headless Wheeljack. I've made a Stunticon Breakdown head for the Mustang mold. It just needs to be painted and screwed on. I've actually completed the prototype but I don't have any pictures of it in its finished state. I should have the molds made and ready within the next week. Here's a picture of my Stunticons near their completion. I liked Overdrive's face for Breakdown but after this photo was taken I extensively modified the nose to give him a more G1 look.
