I converted M416 trailer included in Academy M151A2 Hardtop kit to M100 version to use it with Skybow's M38A1 Jeep. Academy kit already includes optional rounded fenders and I got a pair of extra Skybow's M38A1 Jeep wheels from Accurate Armour (many thanks again to AA!!! ). M100 trailer is some three inches narrower than M416 and the wheel track is also narrower, matching this of M38A1 Jeep. I modified Academy parts to achieve properly sized trailer and added various details like cable storage box, longer parking brake handle etc..

On first two photos note the size difference between my M100 trailer and provisionally assembled original M416 trailer from Academy kit.








Any comments welcome!

That's certainly an unusual conversion! Looks good, Pawel. Can't wait to see it behind your M38A1!

BTW, that's quite a balancing act you performed to get those comparison pics ...

That was actually very easy - ballancing the trailer for the fifth photo was a real challenge I had to use some blue tac on the back side.

...ain't kitbashing and scratchbuilding great? Great job. I love the conversion.
