  • So here is something new for my channel, it's a little bit of an update as to how I'm going to execute the build on my 1/25 scale AMT Wilson Livestock Trailer.
    I'm kit-bashing mine into a more modern 53' tridem axle unit and I'm going to hook it up to my blue and white Kenworth K100 Cabover.
    I'll do another update before I showcase the final build and I'm hoping to put it all together soon!
    Once again, I am very humbled and grateful for all of the compliments, likes and especially your subscription to my channel!
    I look forward to continue building and showcasing my work!

    I built the box stock trailer a couple three years ago. Only trouble I had was that damn roll up door!! Looks like good un!!!!!
    About the suspension,all 4 of our grain trailers are Springer's and 2 of them are less than 8 years old! A lot of farmers still want spring suspension; it's just more durable!

      Hey Tom, you're right about that flippin' roll up door AND the spring suspension... they sure are tough! Thanks again Tom!

    Hi Karl, Great build idea! I don't think that the cattle can tell the ride (spring or air),as long as the trailer is full to capacity. I see today that the manufacturers are up to 4 axles, with at least one lift. And I saw one with the last axle steerable! Great work Man👍👍👍!

    Hey there, very interesting video, I'm still trying to figure out how you connected the sides together to make the trailer longer. I have watched this video several times and stopped it and studied it, I just don't see the joints. I really like your idea of using two kits to make a longer trailer. I like the idea of the triple axel too. Really looking forward to seeing the finished trailer , it's going to look awesome. I also agree with what you said about building models , it's supposed to be fun , I think a lot of people get so stressed out trying to make things perfect. I work hard to make my models to look good and try for perfection . Sometimes it takes me a couple of tries. You have inspired me now I want to try building a longer trailer using two kits. Going to be interesting to check out your paint scheme and what decals you will use. 👍
