Figured I would do a tooned version of my wife's old 1953 canned ham trailer to be in the DW style. I already had the Camaro project sitting around so it will be great to pull it. Now it is styrene time. Attachment Deleted |

Making slow but sure progress on the trailer. Here is the sides cut out and the wheelwell section to hold the sides. Attachment Deleted |

Going slow as I have been on the road a lot. But the basic form is there. Got the floor & propane tank done. Looks pretty wide but it is no wider than the Camaro Attachment Deleted |

Wider... nah... all these deal wheels kits are wide too so it should go proportion to what it was made... Looks great and great progress! |

Here is my wife's canned ham. It is a 1953 King. Totally original inside and out. So this what the little tooned trailer is based on. Attachment Deleted |

Added a ridge along the edges Attachment Deleted for the roof to sit on. Primed the propane tank and re-puttied it and got the hitch corrected and primed. Added the door lines and window molding. |

Glued the sides to the floor pan. Puttied up a nice concave edge around the wheel wells. Added some roof supports. Attachment Deleted |
