Best trailer to use

[matt]

Here we go again.......

As I told ya'll earlier I am planning a build for my Mom that was my Dad's 1:1 truck. Got the parts and all for the tractor......
but I need a trailer....
Here's what I remember

48 to 50 ft.
roll up rear door
sliding rear tandem suspension
Two hole budd painted steel wheels
Sand shoes on the landing gear

That's where I need to be.....How's the best way to get there?
I was thinking Italeri's 50' trailer .

Any help is Welcomed
Thanks
Matt

the roll up door your gona half to build your self.the italeri kit # 3831 has everything but the steel wheels n the door.its a 48 footer.check ebay for the two hole wheels.theres a guy on there that sells for plaskit.

you could scratch build one with a resin suspension kit. For the roll up door that would be east to scratch build with strip styrene and doll house hinges.

I actually thought of using the roll up door from the AMT Louisville kit...(Whata ya'll think?)

provided the trailer is the same scale it should work. You may also have to uses the door frame from the louisville also.
