Here is another scratch build that I have been working on. It is a 28 foot expandable maintenance trailer. I am using photos that I have of one of these trailers. I plan to build another M 275 2 1/2 ton tractor to pull it as in one of the ref. photos.

Dave nice to see you are building again as I have missed your good work in the forums.

That is looking like another unique and large build. I look forward to seeing more progress pics of it.

cheers

You got pics I can build....(I think) :-)

Thanks everyone. Cliff, Matt, Dave It has been a little while. I have been feeling much better lately. I have been trying to work on this trailer for about a month now. I hope to finish it soon and get on to building the M 275 tractor to pull it.
