Calling it done (at least for now). Started out in 3 pieces--running gear, front part of frame and the tank itself. Removed the old rings, some were crooked, added new ones, freshened the paint a little, a few decals from some weird guy  and that's about it.   |

It looks really similar to the trailer that Phil Jensen did in his book.

Hi Jerry!
What's the capacity of such a real tanker? It's diameter is very small.
Is the black / white color combo of those trailers typically for chemical tankers? I saw that often, but never thought about it! Some trailers are white with a black ring in the middle of the tank, others are white with a black rear end.

I don't know the specs for these types of trailers. I got this in a collection that needed some rebuilding and this is what turned out.
