Please be honest, tell me what you think... Is the large plate above the axles too much? what kind of glue and prep would be recommended? the trailer is powdercoated? Thanks for looking and dont be shy with any suggestions or comments. Mario |

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
The center plate looks good , I would rough up the finish to make sure it sticks better. Could use 3M double side film tape.
I hope your trailer is better than mine , I have have few problems, fit and finish isn't the best, the coating isn't sticking and the screws were coated over and the 1 drop leg don't work very well. |

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
In this pic the rear bar of the trailer looks like it has a shiney piece of aluminum or sheet metal.. i think if you add that to it as well with the decking the way you have it it would look killer and fit behind king bling perfect I think it looks great! Dont forget to add your reflective tape

Ohhh yeah, dot tape on order, company logo on the goose neck and a larger logo on the middle of the deck, rear tail lights marker lights and mudflaps, etc....It's gonna be sweet. Time is of the essence, not going to start the major rebuild on Susan's truck till outdoor trucking season is over. I got till then to get this trailer done and then focus on her rig...

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
i also like the diamond plateing. it breaks it up forsure then just all black. add some d.o.t tape and that will also help alot and real affect. favorite part is forsure the tires. nice trailer

I love the tires too. I tried them on the truck , they look mean almost too mean. Makes the truck look like a bush hauler , more gravel road ready. The king of bling is not a bush truck, she's a highway hauler. Besides the tires make the trailer look tough and can handle anything. Mario |

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
Very nice fleet and cool vid's. Now if the boss (Susan) will let you, why don't you hook the tanker on the "KING OF BLING"? It would be SUPER SUPER BLING!!! LOL!!!

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
Another great paint pen to try out is made by prisma color. Being a graphic artist I've tried several and nothing comes close to there hues the application of the paints. And the tips of the markers hold up to abuse very well. Just my two cents.

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
Due to our new company property and fleet expansion recently.......
S&M Trucking is hiring! . 2 positions available. I'm busy running the excavator and Susan is on the dump truck so we have two highway trucks with loads to haul and no drivers. S&M construction is also hiring! . 4 positions available. Wheel Loader operator , dozer operator and 2 loading dock forklift operators. Sorry, we don't pay but you get to play! If your an RC addict and ever in the Sault Ste Marie Canada area, let me know and I'll put ya on the play roll I love this hobby!!!! Mario |
