    Default Car transporter

    This is my try for a european style truck, towing a car transporter, cars included. Scaled 1/27 to fit other trucks I made of plans from Aschi's Woodworking Model Plans. The cars are not to scale, but fit the truck nicely I think. Since this is the first prototype some things can be improved. I am pretty happy about the truck, although the front still looks very flat. The car transporter would get a different design around the wheels, I am not happy with that. The cars are just the kind I like, so they will be included in a definitive version.

    Since this is a prototype, it will get a thorough testing by several kids. When it stands the durability test it will go to a good cause, yet to be determined.

    Any tips, opinions and advice are welcome.

    L x W x H= 61,5 x 9,3 x 14,5 cm, made out of beech.

    A very nice transporter. How about a grill with horizontal bars also a piece of wood over the trailer wheels to act as a mud guard
