Here's my version of the "White Line Fever" Red River Shipping trailer. I know that there are some differences between the AMT kit & the trailer used in the movie, but I'll live with them. The Red River Shipping decals are from JBot; while the Fruehauf, "Wide Right Turn", data plates, & license plates are from the AMT decal sheet. The Nevada plate is from the "Bixby Livestock" decal sheet that I picked up from Model Express a couple of yeas ago.

I posed it with a couple of different tractors just to see how it looked. I kind of like it with the 359






Although the Astro does look good, too.


The W900 is one I built back in 1986, and it shows!


Maybe I'll rebuild it if I can ever find those decals again.
