The larger Galaxy trailer kits come with a second set of ramps that make into a nice flat trailer with the addition of some fenders and wheels. Here's one I made sitting between the Galaxie trailer and the AMT Display case trailer.

Here is the Brass tube frame for the Dodge "Pumpin' Iron" pickup box;

Springs are from the Parts box. Don't remember what kit they are from.

Axle tube is brass.

I think rims are from AMT 70 ford Police. Tires are Revell Super soft Firestones in most Vanagon kits,

and the Skip's 57 Chevy Nomad.

And with the box in place;

I drew the plans for this flat bed in 1/32 and built it.

Tow hitch on Lindberg Charger is also scratch-built.

The pickup box trailer is similar to the 1/25 build, but from an MPC Chevy Stepside "Trail Patrol" kit that got a

Squad 51 type utility box added.

Tongue 'A' frame is Plastruct 'I' beam

Tires on the Pickup box trailer are from Lindberg 1/32 kits (Like the Charger & Cordoba in the picture)

while the rims are from an IMC slotcar stock car kit.

Tires on the flat bed are MPC 2pc from 77/78 Trans Am Pursuit Patrol,

rims I think are from Monogram Malibu Police
