Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

This is my Carson Low Loader with custom inlaid oak decking and operational winch pulled by a Tamiya Globeliner tractor, loaded with CAT tractor equipment.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

It is a very sharp and detailed rig! I like these nice touch on the chaining and floor. And I also like a lot these sunny pictures :cool: It add a pretty shine to the yellow of your rig.
I'm not familar with Carson's product, did you motorised legs? I see that wire on some pics (better view on #5)...
Anyway, you did here a very accurate setup! Congrats:)

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Thanks for the comments. The legs are not motorized on the Carson trailer. The winch is motorized. There are 6 AA cells under the front deck.
I get some of the chains and turn buckles from Ric at PMD and some of the chain comes from Michale's.
The Carson trailer is all machined aluminum and very well made.
The Sun comes from Southern California (-:

Nice rig...

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Great photos! I would like to see more members take pictures like these, outside, under natural lighting. The effect is huge! Now that spring is here, maybe we'll see a few more outdoor photos.

I really like the Cat D9. What scale is it and who makes it? Norscot?

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

lookin good trucker al..love the way u did the wood on the trailer...got to love the sun in so cal.lol..

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Looks great man,nice fleet. Only one issue too much yellow imo. I would paint the trailer wheels white. Then paint the globe liner a different color just to brake up the yellow madness lol. Or just put black stripes and cat symbols on the tractor and make it a catipillar transporter.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Good looking load there driver.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Sweet rig Al! The trailer and load really work together.
Too much So Cal sun for me here! ;)

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Very nice! The D.O.T. stripes set the trailer off really well.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Nathan, I believe that D9 is by 1st Gear, 1/25 scale.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Claus,

Yes, the CAT D9 is 1/25 scale and very detailed. See it here:

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

very clean job with the deck, great touch!

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Did you use the decking from a Tamiya flatbed trailer kit or did you buy wood from a hobby supplier or what exactly did you do? It looks fantastic.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I really like the set

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I still go back and look at this build sometimes, so bright and vibrant! That trailer looks so much better with color and wood decking.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Not to be too much of a jerk but that build was from 2011....

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Thanks Claus,
She still looks as good today as she did 5 years ago. See RCX 2016 pictures.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

No problem! I guess I'm a jerk but I still like going back and looking at some of the older builds. Some guys may have missed some great builds if they were not around here 5 years ago or so.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I think is good. Iv'e missed a lot of what you dug up :) Thanks Claus.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I'm sorry, what I meant was if the truck wasnt in as good condition as it was five years ago I can understand. Five years is plenty of time for wear and tear. I wasn't around five years ago, so I too appreciate looking at the old builds. Previously I was never interested in the semi's so I also like to see where are the hobby has been, and what has been done. Other websites that I've been on have sections where people could go back and view completed builds. I'm still a newbie and have not spent too much time time on this website so I'm not sure if an area like that exists.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Alan have you ever thought about stretching the Globeliner, even slightly?

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

No, but I am going to buy a Grand Hauler soon.
