Hey there - any suggestions for a basic WWII era flat bed trailer? I need one for a atomic bomb test unit display and the test unit I have is 1/48th scale.
Thanks,
Tom P.

My first idea is to tell you to look where O Scale model railroad accessories/scenery are sold.
I'm aware of some lines of industrial-type machines and vehicles available in 1/50 scale diecast. Maybe something there.

As you know 1/48th vehicles are rare.
Here is something that might work...
The trailer is 40s-50s vintage, but it might be close enough or you could modify it.
