As long as you like it that's all that matters This trailer was worse then the first one.. But I think its coming along nicely. I can say this... I have had every screw on this truck out at one point or another.... (theres a lot of screws....) lol

I did not build this one And if I had the metal tools I don't think it would be too hard to recreate.. But better.. Ill put in a good work with the owner im sure he'll sell it.

Yea its been a pain as you know but its working pretty smooth now. I wanted to make it completely self sufficient but this ram takes way too much fluid. In the videos the pump is actually sitting on the table behind the truck. Video 1 shows it in front of the truck. Everything will be on the truck and trust me that's no easy thing with fitting the battery,2 esc's, pump, receiver, and now having to use 2 tanks for fluid killed the pump hiding in a dummy tank.... No worries ill make it happen one way or another..

Scale Art said they would do the cylinders again but the smallest order they will do is 5 cylinders for about 575 euros with shipping, think I might have to do another order.

Its just money right??? Maybe with Izzy and Steve making some nice looking dump bodies now more people will be wanting one....

Well thank you!! Yea not too bad for only a year now in the hobby.. This will make truck 11 or 12 and trailer 10 I think that I have rebuilt or completely built. Im loving it its fun!! Now if I can learn to paint good and do better body work id really crank them out..

It is scratch built but not by me originally... I did however tear it all apart and rebuilt it so it was functional and worked good.

No they are not too bad... This os only one of the Bruder Macks. I hope to start another build In the next few months with another one.

Thanks Tony!! I like both the ribbed and smooth sided trailers.. It wont be as shiny as Benny's but it'll have just the right amount to look good.
