Default Some of my Trailers

I REALLY like building trailers, here's some of them;
Now, if I could just get a tractor or two built...

Rocky Mountain Doubles flatbed set. 48 ft. lead trailer, 28 ft. pup. single axle converter dolly. Lead trailer has operating steer/lift axle. Going to take the lift axle off to use on a heavy haul tractor and convert trailer to a 2 axle spread config. Use this tandem for another converter dolly.



the converter dolly;





20 ft ISO Container chassis from Tamiya flatbed;
this is painted yellow now with Custom Joe's Dayton wheels on it - note that no hub covers are offered.











B-Train logging set, both beds 32 ft. long (stock Tamiya flatbed length)
Logs from FGD - thanks Freddy!. Going to paint them dark red to match the Mack Granite 6x6 I'm building to haul them. I want to put on white Budd steel 2 hole disc wheels on it , as soon as RC4WD gets them made...











Wedico Tamiya size low loader equipment hauler from PMD. For heavy off-road site work where a lowboy won't work. Bone stock except for the operating 3Racing winch and block box on front.







Americanized box trailer, ICC bumper, set back axles, no fenders, custom graphics from skl1cent - thanks Silvio!;





My latest project, a B-Train tanker set. Just have the lead trailer built yet, still have to figure out steps and fenders for it. Has American style super singles on it, may paint them white. Trailing trailer still in box, waiting for this winter's build time.





Tamiya Cowboy built me this tractor body for the tanker set; Thanks Paul!








And finally, one I didn't build but proud to own. Frameless end dump built by Ralph Little. Need to build a dedicated short wheelbase daycab tractor with hydraulics to haul this one.
Like a KW T-800...

That is a nice collection of trailers. I think the logging trailers and the frameless dump are my favorites, but they are nice. I want a dump trailer really bad, but I need to finish a truck to pull it first!
