  1. Back working on the trailer. Axles/brakes together, need some detailing. One side of lower deck on but needs some finish work.
  2. Been playing around with this truck that started out as a rat rod, but I am changing the direction. Decided to find a twin turbo V8 Detroit diesel, use large singles on the rear and low profile tires on the front. Maybe the idea of diesel street rod.
  3. Thanks for posting this. I am stealing this for my big rig truck builds.
  4. Only completed three kits this past year. 50 Chevy farm truck (my grandfathers truck), the injection molding machine ( for a larger project for this year and my GMC General.
  5. Thank you, yes it is a heavy hauler, during my research, these trailers are built for 60 to 80 ton capacity in generally in three axle and 80 to 120 ton in four axle, higher weights can be achieved with a three axle Jeep. There are some monster heavy haul trailers out there in the real world that I would love to build if I knew more about them.
  6. Interested again this year.
  7. Wow, I have gone thru these builds several times and still can’t decide. Deciding on the best is really really tuff. Some excellent builds and skills demonstrated here. Kudos to every builder, they are all winners.
  8. Nice detail, looks really good.
  9. You really did a great job and stuck to your vision. You got some serious skills.
  10. Thanks Dan, yes, need to find a kit of a fork truck.
  11. Outstanding work, that’s a great build.
  12. Little more progress. Crate fits tight on molding machine and I wanted to be able to lift off the crate so show the injection molding machine. Now back to the trailer.
  13. Really nice build, sharp looking rig.
  14. Injection molding machine complete, now start the skid and crate.
  15. Injection molding machine getting close, then finish rear enclosure. Next, build pallet.
  16. Very nice, love the day cab.
  17. Had to read every post on this build, great work, will be following.
