Wow I haven't seen one of those in yrs !!! I almost picked one up at a local show, but now KJ has moved out of state. I don't recall him producing them anymore either 

Looking forward to your build

I went to the site, last update was 2014. , everything is out of stock. This is why it so important that when you something you want, buy it, it may not be there someday. Kudos to you for grabbing one of these kits. Watching your build.

I've had it for quite some time. I was planning to use it with the Cat Bulldozer which I hoped to transform into a pipelayer. So we'll see.

A mockup and wheels ready for paint.

Too bad kits like this aren't available anymore - going to be a great looking trailer once it's finished.

There are some kits out there, Sourkraut Model Trucks actually has a few different versions, but they sell out fast.

Jigging for straightness.

Trailer deck is assembled. I thought I was missing pieces because there is nothing for the top of the kickups,front and rear. So I found some photos and there is none. I might do something about that.

I have decided to leave the center open but to cover the wheels.

Looking good, would one of the AMT bulldozer s fit on it?

[BK9300]

Very nice progress, Pat - that pipe layer / side boom you hope to make would make a good load.

Completed the wheels. Maybe a few touchups to the touchups yet. Installed a hex rod to support the front of the fenders.

Real nice work Pat, my brother pulled one of those haling tanks for the military..

[landman]

Coming along.

The bench is big enough. Its all the stuff on it.

The timber is in. Only the decals left to apply. Then we're done.

First-class workmanship!  Wooden planks are looking sweet!
