Chad Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I went and got the original issue of the CF doubles yesterday ( for 39.99 factory sealed ) and put the boxes together last night.... My question is though I got all the parts to build 2 single axle dollies( minus 3 tires ).... Was this me getting lucky or did they come with 2 dollies? I plan to build 1 box as a newer fedex style smooth/low sided trailer and the other as box stock. The only addition I made so far is a spare tire carrier and safety chains. Pretty excited! Chad
cowboysevens Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 i got a set the same way , i think they kit came with 2 dolly frams and i remember alot of the amt kits i got when i was younger came with an extra tire.
clayton Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I got 2 dollies as well. the only complaint I have my kit has 3 floors and one roof.
scummy Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I got 2 dollies as well. the only complaint I have my kit has 3 floors and one roof. Great ! one van and two flat decks ?
Chad Posted January 19, 2011 Author Posted January 19, 2011 I wasn't sure about the two dollies. I thought it was kind of odd that it came with 2 dollies and 2 trailers.....kinda odd. I was thinking about getting one of the mail truck kits and only using the trailer and running a set of triples. I haven't decided yet, I know it's going to need one big display case LOL Chad
highway Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 I wasn't sure about the two dollies. I thought it was kind of odd that it came with 2 dollies and 2 trailers.....kinda odd. Chad Chad, the reissue was the same way, too. It had two dollies as well, and here I thought it was a goof in the reissue.
mistermodel Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Thats just the way they are.I have an old trucking magizine talking about a single trailer kit that has a dolly included,this single was avalible the same time the doubles were original issues.The US mail set comes with one alsoSpare parts are always a bonus.Get another one to make a tandem for some turnpike doubles
Chad Posted January 20, 2011 Author Posted January 20, 2011 I want the mail kit to make turnpike triples....it looks sweet behind my kw now, triples would be awesome but I hate that little ford LOL. I want to order some 2 hole budds for all of them. Chad
Ben Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 All of the issues of the Trailmobile 27' van kits (the Mail set, the Metro single trailer kit and the CF doubles) come with a dolly. The doubles come with two dollies because the dollies are molded with the trailer parts. Basically, the doubles kit is two "Metro" kits in one box.
deja-view Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 So, is my 1971 Metro 27' single with a dolly anything special?
Chad Posted May 9, 2012 Author Posted May 9, 2012 Im gonna go with no lol, but I could still use it. Chad

B-onefan Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 I got 2 dollies as well. the only complaint I have my kit has 3 floors and one roof. I got one last year that was sealed and it was the same way.
