8 Car Transporter (71 Mopar’s)

[BK9300]

That’s impressive, Dan.  It’s amazing, in real life, how the cars move so little and no damage is done to them while confined in such tight spaces!

[Mopar - D]

Thanks Brian, I’ve heard that they have a +/- 11/2” movement tolerance.

Wow Dan, it's hard to believe that that's based on the same transport trailer I just built!

Amazing skills!

Great job Dan, it's impressive! 👍  I don't know who designed these car transporters, but they're quite a piece of engineering!

You wouldn't want to accidentally drop it on the ground with that beautiful load of Mopars, that would be a disaster I can't imagine! 😱

Thanks David. It would be nice if there was a new version issued by some one.

Thanks Frances I don’t move any of my transports with cars on them just for that reason lol.

I cleaned up a couple things and was able to get some primer sprayed on it. 

[BK9300]

Looking good, Dan - primer is always a milestone!

[slusher]

Nice progress, Dan!

[disabled modeler]

Very nice...!

[Bills72sj]

Great job on your mods. Someday, I want to make two 7 car versions like this.

It's amazing how a good coat of primer has a way of bringing it all together.

Thanks Bill, I’m looking forward to seeing your 2 - 7 car transporters. I like your Worry Free Transport.

Thanks David, it also identifies the areas that still need work lol. 

 

No updates this weekend yesterday was the Modelmania show here in Houston. 

[Mopar - D]

I had some time and low humidity so I was able to spray the green on. This is as clean as it’s going to be I’m going to make it look well used but with nice shiny new cars on it. 

[BK9300]

Looking awesome, Dan - like the worn areas on the ramp treads from all the 'traffic'!

[David G.]

That's a great commercial-looking color Dan. I also like the weathering you did on the ramps, the wear is very convincing.

I’ve been busy the past month with a model show and buying a new car so not much progress. But I’ve  been able to get some detail work done and now have it on the wheels. The Mack is an older build that i wanted to see how the trailer hooked up with it. I’m hoping to get some more work done on it this weekend. Thanks for your support and comments on my build. 

[BK9300]

Looking really fine, Dan!

[David G.]

It looks so cool all loaded up and hitched!

Not to mention the load itself.
