That is the best working show rig I have seen anywhere hands down! Besides the rig you did for Richy BUT other than that the best. No joke John you did a killer job to Travy's trailer!!

Trailer looks sweet! Where did you get the fenders for your truck? They look great!!!

Re: My custom" Biddle Built" Lowboy..
 
That is a nice trailer and great tractor/trailer combo. Especially in red. I like the polished aluminum dress pieces. Sets it off so nicely.

Re: My custom" Biddle Built" Lowboy..
 
Thanks guy's...Just waitting for a couple of more pieces for it....then add lights...then time to put something on it and tear the paint and boards all up:D:D:eek:...Thanks again....Hey Matt...I made the fenders on the truck...Thanks:o

I thought Travis' trailers looked OK without paint but after seeing this, WOW!!! I think Travis needs to hire you to add custom paint and polish as an option when he sells them;);)

Re: My custom" Biddle Built" Lowboy..

John the stuff I was talking about is Dupli-color, Auto Spray Polypropylene Clear Primer. Dupli-Color # DS099

Now I could not find it on dupli-colors web page. I bought it at an auto paint supply place in Sioux Falls.

I did find it here under DUP DS099

Anyway this is the stuff I told you about. I use it to prime my brass and aluminum and I also used it on my truck side rails (Trains now, not trucks) which are made of delrin plastic. I never had a problem with paint coming off of them with this stuff on it first.

Metal Etch Primer.. Works great on plastic and metal.. I have used it to and now am using the Nason brand from the auto body supply shop..

Correct Paul, however this stuff is designed for flexible surfaces like plastic car bumpers. It allows the part to be bent a little without popping the paint.

Looks Sweet John.http://i587.photobucket.com/albums/s...s/coolpics.gif

The chrome out riggers look just make it pop like trailer http://i587.photobucket.com/albums/s...lies/bling.gif And look at the reflection of them in the paint.
