• This was a parts purchase so it came looking like this or close to.

• Another shot of all the basic parts

• Here we see the glue that was used to hold it together by another ‘restorer’

• This is mostly stripped of paint

• A shot of the underside of all main pieces

• Here it is after going through my Glass Bead Blaster.

• From the underside. Nice and clean. Also the finish helps with paint adhesion.

• The connector plate to join trailer to cab.• This is a replacement part.

• Here we see the center punch marks for drilling out the remainder of the stock rivet to allow for the new replacement rivet. I only allow enough of the post to stick out as is necessary to locate the top deck.

• Here you can see how little I leave for the rivet mount.

• Now we are at the rear with a center punch again.

• Hole drilled and rivets that I will use with tops dressed.

• Primed and ready for Paint. I have a ramp for this model too.

• First coat of paint.

• A View from the top.

• Side shot of the partial assembly of the basic parts.

• Here is another view of the painted main parts. Still needs decks painted.

• How about some blue for those decks and hubs.

• Here she is in all her finished glory, decals applied and with a ramp.

• From the other side with decals. Ramp too.

• Looks pretty, decked out like this.

• Final shot from the opposite side. I hope you enjoyed the show.
