This is very detailed work, Mike. If you need some help getting answers to some of your questions, I’d suggest asking Stu (a.k.a. Old Busted Hotness). He scratch built several different scale projects over the years, including a 53’ dry-van with sliding tandems and an International to pull her with. They were both very detailed, excellent replicas.

It’s a good looking trailer. Keep up the good work and post pictures as you get more finished.
