Very nice, I end up going the other way, I just got the cab cut down for my King Liner. It's a day cab made by cutting the sleeper off of a King Hauler body and mounting it on a Globe Liner chassis. That way the truck looks better with the 30' trailer. Hah. And I'm going to weather the heck out of it, and rough it up a bit, make it look like it's been doing interurban work it's whole life Something different. Nice work you've done, man. Be well and have fun.
@@EMPTYPOCKETSRC should be, I got the liner kit for free, it had been almost started, but the body was gone. A friend had just gotten done with a custom tractor he built and had the king Hauler body with nothing to do with it, so, . . . Starting out with basic crawler electronics that I have laying around. Ill do a MFC unit later if I don't just wire stuff up myself. Be good, and have a nice day
Now THAT'S an appropriate Trailer!!! Makes the Grand Hauler look much better. And I'm sure you know that backing a short Trailer with a long Tractor can be IRRITATING! 😠
Yes it is, looks way better than the original one Tamiya had. The one I have that I purchased back in 1999 has been modified as well. I currently have another one still new and in the box still that’s gonna be modified as well.
@@waynenorbreyjr9371 My fleet of too short Trailers needs HELP. This showed how "easy" stretching a Rollerskate is, even with his QC issues with materials! Stretching my Box Vans is going to be a nightmare 😫 I can't even do my Smokey and the Bandit Trailer. I've got the detail parts for a decent Hobbs Reefer... but NOBODY makes a scale length Body Decal.
I need to finish up on my first semi truck project which is the Ford Aeromax and I recently purchased another Aeromax and flatbed trailer for another project that I have planned.
The name of the stain sounded good....But yes I would prefer a bit lighter. I would suggest a small test spot on an underside of a board. Dang deck looks like a hardwood floor....lol
Inch and a half by same angle for the frame rails and 3/4 inch angle on the sides. Copy the holes front and back and add as much as you want in the middle.
@@EMPTYPOCKETSRC Thank you for the information. I’ve built my King Hauler, and wasn’t impressed with the short trailers. Knew it would need some tweaks. Appreciate your input, and your trailer is awesome 😎. Looking forward to seeing yours finished, and getting ideas from it and you, if you don’t mind. Gotta love the hobby. 🤜🤛👍
Awesome my friend

Thank you.
Chasing a short tail requires a lot of patience!
And then some!

The little trucks take a lot time...lol
Good hobby.
Man that's nice I sold mine
Thank you
I love your rig , why did your decking get so dark I’m almost afraid to put anything on my deck in fear it will darken to much

What did you do to stretch your trailer? Also will your technic work on the van trailers too?

Van trailer you would need to build walls.

Do Tammy have ready to run 18wheeler
Yes they do! No I don't know where to look for one. Plaza Japan or RCmart maybe....
I wouldn't want to know the shipping. Lol
