880 Lowboy Trailer with load

This was a nice kit and a great compliment to my California hauler. Even though it is an older kit, there weren't any fit issues and there was very little flash that needed to be cleaned up. The decking is white plastic with wood details molded in. To make the kit really pop, I'd recommend not using the supplied plastic and using thin pieces of balsa wood and staining it. It looks more realistic and takes the hassle out of trying to paint a realistic wood look. I would also look into a new load as the one supplied with the kit is a little outdated. I would recommend this kit to anyone who is a fan of building semi models.

This kit is somewhat easy to build and assembles well, if you take the time to test fit everything. The fact that is comes with partially chrome wheels is a big plus. The only negative with this kit is the payload it comes with....the items are a bit outdated. Look for some heavy equipment, a shipping container or an Army tank as the payload. What is nice about this kit is that you can build this without the bobtail.

Nice model, I'm building it for the second time, good model to add to a collection
