Jim B Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Does anyone know the Fruehauf & Wilson model numbers for these AMT trailers? Just for general curiosity. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckyg1 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Don't have a clue as to the #'s, but it sure does remind me of Ice Road Truckers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 Yes, that table top does have the effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Force Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 All these has been reissued several times with different numbers, but as far as I know these are the first. The Wilson Lifestock Trailer had T-594 at the initial release 1972 The Fruehauf Van Semi-Trailer had T-507 1971 The Fruehauf Tanker had T-506 1971 The Fruehauf Exterior Post Van had T-524 1972 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 Thanks, Håkan; but that's not what I was looking for. I am looking for the Fruehauf & Wilson model numbers, not the AMT model numbers. It's good information, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grodudulle77 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 (edited) I’m building this trailer , this kit is hard to build , the assemblies are very imprecise and plastic is not of very good quality ( # Evergreen styrene quality) . However it is a very detailed and interesting trailer . Is it the same with others trailers ? Philippe.

Jim B Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 Philippe, if I remember correctly, I glued angle stock along the upper & lower seams on the side walls to give the floor & roof something to mount to. I had no plans on opening the trailer up, so that really helped stiffen up the box. If you want another challenge, try the AMT tank trailer.

grodudulle77 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Thanks Jim , i think the word « challenge « is the right word for Amt trailer kits ! ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 Well, that's one way to put it! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuces ll Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Just ordered the "Lowboy" trailer.... Hope I don't have any problems with that one.....?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) I have the AMT Lowboy trailer, but I haven't built it yet. I also have the AMT Flatbed trailer. I don't have a Fruehauf model number for the for the flatbed, but the Load King lowboy is a FB34D (I think), with a 75T capacity.
