I've been wanting one of these for a long time so I decided to give scratchbuilding one a go, here's how it looks after about 2 hours work.

6 x 4 Trailer 6x4a

6 x 4 Trailer 6x4b

6 x 4 Trailer 6x4c

6 x 4 Trailer 6x4d

Only things kit based are the wheels and springs, I'm putting together a back yard style Photo backdrop and it will reside in there.

Looks great so far. Now just to build the scale rubbish.
I used to build them in N scale for my train set I think 1:24 would be harder to do.

Obviously it'll be blue, as all trailers seem to be, and rusted/weathered/dented?
Don't forget to have one rear light lens broken, trailer plug hanging off with loose wire (from it being left plugged in when the trailer was unhitched), missing or too short safety chains, rego No. (from a car sold 6 months ago) written in white paint, spare wheel with a bald missmatched tyre and a bent drawbar from being jacknifed.

That was my first reaction Andy, but can a 6 be 4 trailer really be cool? -insert tongue in cheek emoticon here
Maybe if it was flamed, pinstriped or scalloped and slammed and riding on wide whites with baby moons. But otherwise it's just something that lives behind the shed and is hooked up every few months to take crap to the tip.

Now there's a thought Paul, put a towbar on the back of Allison Pumpkinland and fill the trailer with 1/25 pumpkins...
