JoshParkinson Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I've made this dolly trailer (or bogey, hence the name) to go behind my fendt 718 to be like a flower company up the road from me, it will fit either 1/50 or 1/32 scale trailers, as you can see it is on a 1/50 trailer at the moment, I have also painted the red A frame on the front linkage black, i just need to spray the trailer plain white, put twin beacons on the fendt and get some decals made up with L & D Flowers to go on the bonnet, then it will go in a diorama. And if anybody has a pair of Fendt beacons PM me. Pictures: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshParkinson Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 Nice bit of work there was it a hard build? Not overly difficult mate. Just cut up a Mercedes lorry which i bought cheaply from a garden centre a couple of years back, then just found an old drawbar and glued that on.

powerrabbit Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Saw the title and thought it was going to be something to do with noses! Nice thinking there Josh in the making of a fifth wheel (that's what we down here always call tractor/trailer dollies), surprising how many are actually used in the real world of farming.

Yeah a lot of the veg companies around here use them, the company i'm basing this on bought 2 fendts (a 415 and a 718) just to pull lorry bodies and also do some other carting duties, but never known them to do anything in the field, i'm not sure whether there was a reason for this or whether it's just because they have more money than sense. Fendts are lovely tractors though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
