making a new trailer
 

hey guys im new to the site and to RC trucks and after stumbling across a video of a tipper on youtube from diesel950 i fell in love with the idea and i got on to ebay and im ordering a ford aeromax prime mover.
i am also in the process of designing up a trailer at the moment based on a 36ft Muscat TOA tipper, got a copy of the original blueprints of a good mate of mine to sort out the measurements so hopefully i can start on that soon

i am basing it on a mid 90's model muscat because my pop had one when he used to cart coal out of the hunter valley (around newcastle area) and i loved that trailer looked good too :D

wish me luck for my 1st build lol

Hi Banshee your not alone on that one in building a trailer for the first time as i'm new to it all and just bought a MAN and i am looking at building a curtain side b-double for it.

I had some help from Tim here in WA from the club and he has given me some great idea's, Thanks Tim. Once it's finished mate and they are the way you want it, it will be worth it in the long run.
