Thats so great. I really want to build a dragin wagon eventually. I have my m32 half finished but really its not going to do anything special other run a winch. I really wish somebody would make a full kit for a drag wagon. I converted a 1/18 toy somebody gave me into a nicely moderatly detailed cab unit

Well, thank you. I ocnsidder myself an ok modeler, just try to get the details right up to my skill level. Others here are even better than I am callable of doing.
My main stoppoing block is i dont have good dimensions, or knowledge of the tamiya rc truck axles amd spring sets most use for these builds. If i could get past that i could do the rest.

Great looking man.
so did you build the chassis from tamiya semi Parts?
i would really like to build one of these things but do not know anything about the tamiya semi trucks to even know where to start.
I also have mpnot found plans that hVe dimensions on them for various measurements needed like wheelbase. Overall length, frame, heights etc etc.

Hi Rich,
It is based on a Tamiya Scania chassis but you can use a Globeliner and cut it down/move the wheels back. I chose the former as cutting and moving all the frame and suspension didn’t appeal to me.
I believe it’s 10mm too long this way but don’t tell anyone
The cab is from Germany and its laser cut like Ludwigs stuff.
I scratch built most parts with some tricky bits being 3d printed.
Trailer is from same guy in Germany, aluminium and very strong.
