Yeah. So far about 95% scratchbuilt.

Looking good! I thought maybe you forgot about it!

Nope. I haven't forgotten about it just haven't had much ambition to build. Seems like I'll spend a day doing some productive model building and it'll be a week or two before I even touch it again.

Thanks for the compliments!!!

Good looking trailer. I think I am going to try giving one of my T/M's the wood interior treatment. Thanks for the in-progress pics, really gives a good look at ways to detail.

Done that already. Most of the plywood lined trailers have 4'x8' sheets. I used chalk,and wood stain (light oak and walnut) to weather the plywood here.

That looks good too. Is balsa a good wood for this or is there something better?

Scott: I like the forklift-stressed diamond plate at the rear of the trailer. Nice work.

Yeah, I love it! I had to chuckle when I saw that first interior shot! Kudos!!! They always take a beating at the back of the trailer and that looks like typical wear and tear on most of the trailers I've pulled. Very realistic and very well done.

Wow cool interior. looks very real.
