So I decided that R&S Heavy Haul needed a Single Drop by unfortunately there are none currently made so off I went. Starting with art's Flatbed trailer I started my project.
With measurements of a real trailer in hand I started my project. Measuring,cutting then I got crazy. I didn't like the molded in plastic wood I started cutting it out and rebuilding the flooring to replace it with balsa wood.
Mix that in with cutting material for Dan(mopar) to build a lowboy for his ever growing fleet is keeping me busy right now!!!

And on the 8th Day God created the HEMI and all the Boss's and Rats ran away!!
