Can any one tell me if the tamiya box trailer has smooth sides or lines down the side? I am looking for a moving box trailer if any know where I can find one?

The side are not smooth...They are ridged on both sides. I had new panels cut for mine by a buddy out of aluminum sheet metal. I had the sides and front panel done to get rid of the ugly hole there for the light plug.

I thought about doing the same but I have now decided to build my own.

How about the insides of the panels ? Can't you just flip left with right and insight out (if you know what I mean) ? Makes obviously only sense if the insight are smooth.

Brad, I like how you left the fenders off your box trailer. That's how I'll do mine when I get one : )
