Thanks guys, should have the truck wrapped up soon, then it’s trailer time. This is pretty much where I stopped last night…

Are those dash fans part of the kit? I have 2 kits, but have not opened either one. (normal and Rat Fink)

No, I got those from double take replicas a few years ago, unfortunately KJ isn’t making parts anymore….

Thanks guys, appreciate the comments and inspiration. The truck is done, so now it’s trailer focus until that’s done.

Awesome, that looks great. Looking forward to seeing that trailer behind it! I need to pick one of those trailers up one of these days!

Thanks guys, Ive got the trailer 1/2 in paint, well, a third of it I guess lol. We are supposed to get dumped on with snow late Friday, so I’ll be at the bench all weekend ….

So, the white bits are done, finally, tomorrow will be mask and spray the aluminum, then some green stripes of some sort. I ended up gluing all the doors closed due to some warping of the parts, which honestly was rather disappointing for a ‘new reissue’, would have thought parts would not be warped, but it is what it is, stay tuned for more updates…..

Calling it done. If you guys should build this trailer, be warned that the decals are kind of thick and don’t really respond well to decal softener ( at least they didn’t for me ), and I couldn’t get them to conform very well. It does look good on the shelf though. Thanks for following along on this one.
