Here a project that should keep me busy for few days. It is an interesting trailer made by RM Johnson. why 1/64 scale? I had already the tires and wheels :D . I was considering to build it in 1/24 scale, but the size, since I would like to make a diorama with it, I opted for 1/64.

First thing, I did a classic reseacrh on it, to find manuals, brochures etc... 
I draw very quickly a what it could loooks like, at least the frame or chassis part, just to have an idea about the dimension.

Wow , now that is some fine detail, Fabrizio and 1/64! That is very cool. A great start to a unique project. This is going to be interesting.
