  1. Doing some digging (https://www.renderhub.com/driverua/ford-h-series-hdt-950-semi-truck-sleeper-cab-1961)and found the year as a 1961. The kit you bought represents the truck really well.
  2. What year of truck would this represent? I like what you are doing with this kit.
  3. Lookin good, well done
  4. Thanks David, really enjoy these heavy hauler builds.
  5. Very nice build
  6. Mounts made to put tank on trailer, got the pallet made for the installation parts for the tank. The railing for the top of the tank arrived but the ladder and safety cage did not. This will hold up installing the fill tube, as the railing and ladder must be installed first. The strap kits are here as well
  7. Got started on the tank load for the trailer
  8. Such a cool build, will be watching
  9. Beautiful build, well detailed.
  10. Gonna be watching this come together, some serious ideas here.
  11. Giving thought to a good load for display on the trailer. Think I will build a plastic pellet storage silo. Managed to find a “G” scale ladder and ladder safety cage on EBay. Will use PVC tubing for silo housing and look for a funnel to match diameter. The rest will be Evergreen. Photo example
  12. Just purchased some from Hobbylinc.com
  13. Jacks are built and tucked into the frame.
  14. Trailer is painted, decking cut but needs some fine tuning. Lights, mud flaps and some decals, some other details,then back to truck.
  15. Got any finished pictures of your trailer? Like to see em.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. Frame of the trailer coming together, will try to build my own wood deck.
  19. Thanks, decided I like building trailer from scratch better but will stay the course on this trailer
