Just lovely.

Made the decking out of Mahogany. I feel it has the "right" look. Started painting the trailer.

For Christmas, a gift card and a chair to sit on while building whatever I get with the card.

Here's my bench, homemade with recycled woods.

Made up some gladhand connectors and a socket for the electrical connection. Starting to kook like a trailer. Does the hind end look high to you guys?

I like this.Have to learn how to do that.

Sleek,clean,uncluttered.A pleasure for the eye.

Thank you gentlemen and Merry christmas.

IJ001's thread gave me a hankering for a Miura. I see Entex, Italeri and Hasegawa among others. I'm looking for a kit with an engine. Which is most recommended.

I understand it wasn't just a shell they flipped down the ravine but an actual complete Miura.

Only one maybe, but a humdinger.

Here is his response: Hi Pat, Unfortunately I do not have molds for those parts anymore. I think Jamie over at Moluminum makes outriggers and D-rings though. -KJ

Made up a well for the spare tire and a bracket to hold it. and...some crude wheelbacks to go behind the Plaskit items.

looking at the wood decking, I have some balsa which translates to 2X6. The "woodgrained" original plastic decking shows closer to 2X10. Which is more plausible?

Thank you, sir.

Recentered the inter-wheel supports and trimmed rear deck plate to fit. Trimmed some deck plate to fit the gooseneck. Added corrugated plate to the beaver tail. I remember the trailer being pulled up to the fifth wheel with the winch. Made up a D-ring attachment for the front.

If you look at the 1:1 picture, there are D-rings and outriggers. Where can I get them? I thought Mr. Double Take made them but I don't see them listed. I knoe there are some in his detachable gooseneck lowboy. Maybe if I ask nicely....

Cut the suspension assembly according to the Ken Smith instructions which rendered it springless. Is that what they call "hardtail"? Narrowed and reattached the gooseneck.

This is what it looked like before.

International R190 (Apr) (Month completed) Cobra (Feb) 1970 Pontiac V12 pickup (Mar) 1934 Chevrolet Master (May) Started a long time ago. 53 Ford Pickup (May) Dodge Bighorn with Big Al (Aug) 67 Shelby (Sep) 1961 Ferrari 250 (Sep) 64 Studebaker Avanti (Sep) Series 1 Jag XKE (Oct)

Well now you know, it is above and beyond. Everybody agrees. So don't worry be happy. So don't move, keep your job and you might swing 3 in 2018.

I found a Ken Smith article on how to do just that, turn this lowboy into a tandem 25 tonner. It looks a lot like your suggestions Brian and Kerry.So I'll go with that.

OK, I need help here. This is the AMT lowboy suspension. Is there any way I can cut this and make a two axle which would remain plausible? If not, I'm open to suggestions as to an alternative including resin items.

I had bought a pile of trailer parts on eBay. there is enough there to make this trailer. Started by cutting off the gooseneck. Then I narrowed it. I took off about the width of the king pin plate. Should I narrow it some more like about the width of the plate plus the side rails or is it good like this?
