  1. Got any finished pictures of your trailer? Like to see em.
  2. That’s a really good idea. I stretched the frame on this build so the original panels don’t fit , otherwise I would try out what you did.
  3. Fabrication work near complete, did not realize there are no jacks in this kit. Will need to fab up a set of jacks, do some finish work on the frame, pick up some wood strips for the deck.
  4. Frame of the trailer coming together, will try to build my own wood deck.
  5. Thanks, decided I like building trailer from scratch better but will stay the course on this trailer
  6. Got a start on the trailer for the truck. Starting with the AMT Lowboy kit (as the donor). Will use the rear three axle section without beaver tail, will stretch to a 40ft drop deck. Will build up a set of 10 hole wheelset. Frame paint in turquoise and suspension in semi gloss black
  7. Rear fenders mounted, lights on, fuel tanks mounted. Think I will shorten the exhaust. Finish up interior and cab but getting close.
  8. Thanks, got a ways to go yet. Gonna put together a flatbed trailer with same paint scheme to finish this one out.
  9. I have come back again to admire your build again, well done
  10. This is a build worth watching.
  11. Wow, well done, will be watching this one.
  12. Quick mock-up before attaching rear fenders and identifying fuel tank locations. Raised body mounts .030 for more clearance with the oversized tires
  13. Rebuilt the chrome kit fuel tanks and yes I know, you will only be able to see the top rear corner with the aero skirts mounted. But the kit tanks just looked so bad. Getting the paint on the hood fixed.
  14. I like your idea on the mud flaps, little detail and they will look way better than the molded part. May steal your idea.
