transit mk6/7 mini artic

[rwd lynch]

i've been building a transit artic since january so i thought i would put up a few pics of the progress.

it started of as a tipper.



like the look of the mk7 so i fitted a mk7 front end.









after the front end was finished made a start on the rear.

mudguards fitted.



i'll put up some more pics through the week.

like the idea of a sleeper but don't know what to do as it's handy having the seats in the back.

the wheels on the trailer are only 9 inches, i want to keep it as low as possible as i'll be putting cars on it.

Nice semi low stepbed what is the plated weight going to be gross and unladen

The gross can only be 3500kg on a car license....

I would think it weighs around 3000kg unladen
