Car Transporter Trailer Kits

Recommended Posts

Google has proved no use and I have had no joy searching the forum. 

 

Anyone know now of any 1/24 scale commercial transporter trailers.  Or is it likely to have to be scratch built? 

 

Was thinking about different ways to start displaying models. 

 

Any leads or advice is appreciated.

 

i look forward to any responses.

You mean something like this?

I think it's an Aoshima kit.

Really limited market but there appear to be a couple of options available. Will look into the super dolphin, as there was a rebox  in 2015. 

 

Thanks for for your help. It’s very much appreciated

I have found a super dolphin and ordered from a Czech shop online. £85 inc shipping. Bargain as there is one on amazon for over £1000 😂

At first I misread your post and thought you said £100 ... but no the price is indeed a lousy $1475 hahaha

 

You've just invested in early retirement 😉

Just to update those who stop by, I received my package yesterday.  I ordered from MN modelar, they are a shop in the Czech Republic.

Excellent shipping time and the product was very well packaged. I can recommend them if your after something obscure.

Pretty sure that AMT did a commercial one way back in the 60's in 1/25th scale. Hope this helps. The Japanese one in an earlier post looks a good bet. There is a single vehicle trailer from South Eastern Finecast and MotoBitz makes some resin stuff to semi scratch build one from plastic card.

I’ve been looking at that kit, how detailed is the tractor unit? Is it a good kit or a bit basic?

@richellis I just saw this post, apologies for the delayed response.

 

I just popped out the shed for you and took a couple of sprue shots and instruction sheet shots for you; shown below.  Hope this helps.
