Wow in 1:1 that thing would be 12ft wide and a lowboy is 102in wide so that excavator is 42in wider than a standard lowboy.

Ok Clyde get a king hauler make a 1/14 scale 102in wide lowboy which will be 7.28in wide and use 1 1/8 side bords to give you a total width of 9.53in and the dozer will hang over both sides and look fine.
