thanks to my good friend Leo Venderstelt I now have a grain truck. I built the 4270 from the box and used the rims from the 4300.Leo also added the short stacks from the Can-Do wrecker kit in resin which look great for stack ends.thanks for looking. this is the trailer kit he used for the grain trailer. back view another view and now the whole rig.

Jim,
Now this is really a great build of a trailer not much modeled. The detail is fantastic and the attention to that detail, well what can I say except WOW!!! Nicely done and planned out. Looks great behind the 4300!!
I've seen a lot of grainers out here but they are rear dump type or converted vans. The bottom dump is rare in this area, but I imagine they are making a show now up in the Willamette area of Oregon, now. Once more a great build. Thanks for showing.
William

Jim, Good use of a trailer kit that is a bit out dated! You did a good job with the transformation!

I spent a couple of years in Minnesota after I retired and hauled grain for a Turkey Farm. You did a great job of building this one. Mike

thanks guys, for the record Leo Vanderstelt built the trailer. I built the 4270. don't want to take credit for something I didn't do.
and William those bottom dumps are a dime a dozen around here. lot of farms! I have a good friend who farms and had custom decals made for the doors.
