traditional Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) My brother, Larry, just sent me pics of his completed trailer to go with his recently completed '59 White 3400 Diesel Tractor. The trailer is entirely scratch-built (mostly brass) using reference of covered-wagon style trailers from that era, and it's painted in basecoat/clearcoat to match the tractor's livery. All the useable sides, hoops, rope, and tarp are stacked in the front area of the trailer, and I noticed that he's even run the simulated wiring to the tail-lights, etc. Edited March 8, 2014 by traditional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plastheniker Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 The trailer is as impressive as the tractor. Considering that working with brass is much more difficult than styrene: admirable work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
