Re: Flat bed Trailer, Aussie style!!
Caged trailers are rare these days, that's why I gotta build me a "Old School" truck to pull it around, I do have one in mind...

Re: Flat bed Trailer, Aussie style!!
It definately is Old School, Tracy,
gonna be a lot of fun building it too!! Gotta KH body here to start off with, gonna have to chop the roofline down a bit and tilt the windscreen back a little, amongst a lot of other detail Might have to employ our old friend 1800-BB-TIMMY to do the cow killer though...Lol!! Paul

Re: Flat bed Trailer, Aussie style!!
Well I was going to say as well only a 1800-BB-TIMMY BB would do for this build but thought I would leave it later in the build once the body work was started LOL
Cheers Tracy

Re: Flat bed Trailer, Aussie style!!
now that is going to be a cool truck to build paul,
if you want any information about it the owner is a mate of mine, so can give him a call. i think he would be rather chuffed to see it built too. |

Re: Flat bed Trailer, Aussie style!!
Thanks Shaun, will be great build if I can pull it off...
Trust me to pick a truck and have someone on here know the owner... Could be very handy, you knowing the Bloke, might just need some detailed pic's,. Actually, I should go all the way, Can you get some shots of his trailer, might as well build mine the same as his!!! Cheers Paul
