Very nice! The D.O.T. stripes set the trailer off really well.

Nathan, I believe that D9 is by 1st Gear, 1/25 scale.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Claus,

Yes, the CAT D9 is 1/25 scale and very detailed. See it here:

very clean job with the deck, great touch!

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Did you use the decking from a Tamiya flatbed trailer kit or did you buy wood from a hobby supplier or what exactly did you do? It looks fantastic.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I really like the set

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I still go back and look at this build sometimes, so bright and vibrant! That trailer looks so much better with color and wood decking.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Not to be too much of a jerk but that build was from 2011....

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Thanks Claus,
She still looks as good today as she did 5 years ago. See RCX 2016 pictures.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

No problem! I guess I'm a jerk but I still like going back and looking at some of the older builds. Some guys may have missed some great builds if they were not around here 5 years ago or so.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I think is good. Iv'e missed a lot of what you dug up :) Thanks Claus.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

I'm sorry, what I meant was if the truck wasnt in as good condition as it was five years ago I can understand. Five years is plenty of time for wear and tear. I wasn't around five years ago, so I too appreciate looking at the old builds. Previously I was never interested in the semi's so I also like to see where are the hobby has been, and what has been done. Other websites that I've been on have sections where people could go back and view completed builds. I'm still a newbie and have not spent too much time time on this website so I'm not sure if an area like that exists.

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

Alan have you ever thought about stretching the Globeliner, even slightly?

Re: Carson Low Loader, Globeliner and CAT equipment
 

No, but I am going to buy a Grand Hauler soon.
