landman Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) Love it. And you are right, it is waiting for a trailer. One like this: I went back to the workbench to find your source for the wheels. It is not mentioned other than they are resin. Where did you get them?

I like that pic, I'll be using the Lindberg trailer. Though of shortening it up a little bit not sure if I will or not..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1930fordpickup Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Looks great Kerry. Go ahead and shorten the trailer like the picture above. It will fit the era better and take up less shelf space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim B Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 The wheels & tyres appear to be copies of the Italeri Opel Blitz parts.Interesting. I might need to look into this as I need something like these for a Ford F8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgefever Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Interesting. I might need to look into this as I need something like these for a Ford F8.They're OK size wise, but 8-stud fixing and have military tread pattern on the tyres. Also, the PCD of the stud pattern is larger than you'd typically see on US trucks - same goes for 10 stud British and Euro wheels vs. US ones, the US wheels have a smaller PCD.

Jim B Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Thanks for information. I have no idea what a PCD is, but I'll look it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
