Nice work!
About "what to put on the trailer", I saw two M113 on it during Gulf War... I think in a pic in a Concord book. I'll send a pic if I can find it.

As promissed: I know some of these trucks aren't M747, but I liked the way they used the space on the trailer: My favorite:  Look the Sheridan at left:  An M577 and a "container"(?)  Different haulers, nice cargos:    Hope it helps (or not ) |

I'll side with the Boys on that. Tires look good, Mence. What did you end up doing for weathering? |

Gave the sidewalls a light buffing with a sponge sanding stick, used some coarse sandpaper to take the tread depth down a bit then liberally brushed on some middle east sand pigment made into a paste with some enamel thinners. Removed what i didn't want with an enamel soaked brush and small piece of sponge. |
