Optimus Prime

The trailer will need a fair bit of work mate. You may want to consider the Great Dane Reefer, or possibly a Moebius 58 footer? I'm unfamiliar with Optimus Prime, but I remember my kids watching transformers, back in the day. The Fruehauf is a very old mould, and the front section is rounded at the corners. That means that the chassis is too. I have some build tips for that trailer, if you plan to go down that route mate

I hadn't thought that far ahead. I got the combo fairly cheap and OP looks like a fun thing. It is also debatable whether a Pacemaker or a White coe is better suited. I think I'll get in touch with you whenever I'm going to build this one, if that's okay with you?

Martin mate, you can get in touch, anytime brother? I can do some checking for you, and even send you pictures, if you need them? My 58' smooth side is still in the USA, but I got ya

Thanks mate 👍🏻👍🏻

I did a bit of geeking on this one for you. Lazy Sunday, and all that. Personally, I think that you're better off with the freight shaker. I'd consider looking for another kit though, because I went through your stash and the 75th Anniversary kit, has much more in it, you may want to build a version of it, later? The kit you have comes with extra parts, so you can build a day cab and single/double drive options? The FLA is a tricky kit, but not beyond your capability. You'll need square double headlights though, so I'd certainly check out CTM. There's also a top grill, that you'll have to fabricate, but it's the post between the split front windscreens, that has me wondering? You may need to widen it?
