Swifster Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I'm looking for a big rig dolly like the one below. Any suggestions?
kilrathy10 Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Well, if you can find the AMT doubles trailers or the US Mail truck, there are some in those.....
txdieseldog Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Tom, I have the doubles and it came with two dollies. As JT mentioned the mail truck as well, I believe it to be a single kit with the Ford C cab but have heard that they put a dolly in it as well. Moral of the story........ 1 trailer-1 dolly......2 trailers-2 dollies. Happy hunting.
KJ790 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 If you can't find one then it wouldn't bee too hard to scratch build one or make one from kit parts. I'm sure between the members on here you could scrape together the parts needed to make one.
disabled modeler Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 The US Mail Ford and trailer came with a dolly?....I never knew that...need to find one as well for a couple of short fuel tanker trailer pups.
fantacmet Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Looks easy as pie to me, I was going to get on here and ask the same question tonight. Someone beat me to it. LOL
Ben Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I see the dolly kit by itself on Ebay from time to time?
fantacmet Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 I refuse to shop ebay anymore. Sold a phone, they let the guy keep the phone, they gave him a full refund, and still are trying to charge me return shipping fee's and seller fee's. Nothing wrong with the phone the guy just didn't want it. So I'm out 320 bucks on that and nothing to show for it. So I don't do business with ebay anymore in any way shape or form. It doesn't look too hard to scratchbuild something convincing though. Simple leave setup, couple of ibeam sections and a 5th wheel(of which I have an extra because of the logging truck).
Swifster Posted January 10, 2015 Author Posted January 10, 2015 I scored the dual trailers on Ebay. If it comes with two dollies....BONUS! It did get me interested in CF in general and building a whole thing. Now I'll just have to find a reasonably priced White-Frieghtliner SD.
Petetrucker07 Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Or if your brave, alter the dual drive.
fantacmet Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 I vote BRAVERY. Then again it's not my plastic or $$. I learn alot from watching others alterations though.
