This is the latest trailer I have started, an SAIA Motor Freight Lines Inc. 53' Wabash Duraplate Trailer.












The trailer is mostly completed as it is now, but there are still a couple things that need to be done before it is 100% complete:

1. Install Mud Flaps and SAIA Mud Flap Decals
2. Paint red rear lights
3. Seal trailer with clear flat finish

I will be doing a few more trailers for SAIA as well, I plan to do another 53' Plate Trailer, a 48' Trailer, an older 40' Trailer, and 2 sets of 28' pups with converter dollies. I havnt decided how many cabs I will paint and decal for SAIA yet, but they will be all Mack CH 603 Day Cabs similar to the ones that are in the pictures above. I might do a Ford LN9000 to mix it up a tad, but I havnt decided yet lol Should have the cabs in sometime this week

Wow, that is really sharp Josh, you do such great work with trucks! Wish I could see what you'd do with 50's equipment.

And I second that motion, except I want to see late 1970s!

Great stuff, Josh.

Why thank you JG and Gary Unfortunately I wont be doing any 50's or even any 70's trucks, Im afraid im stuck in the modern era hehe

Im going to snap some pics of the 45'er that I decaled today, will post the pics in a few mins. The cabs should also be in hopefully tomorrow for these trailers.

Here is the 45' trailer I decaled this afternoon for SAIA Motor Freight. This was one of their older trailers with an older logo/striping. The hole trailer is supposed to be silver, but I just didnt think it would look as good and stand out as much, so I highlighted the top and bottom rails, front and rear sides, and back top rail above the door with silver, and left the rest white...














This trailer needs the following:

1. Rear Trailer Lights painted red
2. Trailer sprayed with flat finish to seal the decals in place


For some reason, the background clear decal film is pretty noticeable on this trailer, and its not just the camera catching them, I can see it clearly when im holding it up with my own eyes. It only is visible from certain angles, but once the flat finish is sprayed on it should make them disappear i hope

For some reason, my camera has not been taking good pics lately. I think it might be getting time to get a newer high quality camera and ditching this older cheap one lol Sorry about the bad quality in pictures lately, as soon as i can get some spare cash, ill be buying a super nice one with all the bells and whistles

Really nice job!
