Hi Gang!

It's been a while....

We are having a truck build off at the club I'm a member of and I have decided to do as the title says, a cheap Revell Peterbilt 359 with an AMT Freuhauf trailer in 1/25 scale.

I started off with the trailer and decided it will be used, rusty and grimy as you'd expect from a trailer that has been dragged across the US's motorways.

Here are some pics of the completed trailer.

Thanks for looking

Well done your weathering looks very realistic.

That looks great Gavin, very nice weathering.

If you are interested we will be having a big rig group build here in the near future. That trailer needs a rig to pull it. LOL

Cheers matey, I was sweating it a bit. Nice to hear that I got close to what I was intending to achieve.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I have a cheap Revell Peterbilt 359. Kit 1506. This I hope to mate it up with the trailer.

I think you have hit the target the Gavin, really nice weathering for a workhorse trailer.

Looking forward to the next stage hitting the bench now.

Cheers, D

Gavin, that trailer looks awesome. Looking forward to seeing your Peterbilt.

Thanks Damian, much appreciated!
