Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

ABS Live Bottom Materials Trailer - By André Giroux


Here's another look at André Giroux's model of the horizontal conveyor materials trailer. The conveyer is located in the middle on the bottom of the trailer and has a retractable tarp. The whole of the model's construction is of styrene, except the fenders (made of thin aluminum plate .008" from K&S Engineering, engraved and rounded). All wheels and tires are from Lonestar Models with the exception of the singles that are from Promotex. The landing gear is from an Athearn container chassis. The paint is from Model Master and plating from Alclad II Chromium. Previously featured in Photo Gallery 452.
