richrua Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Hello. I am considering a model of a Dutch steam van. Are there any suitable shortish chassis that might suit ? I plan to build the body myself but a suitable chassis would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 irishthump Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I used an old Lima parcel van to make a rough approximation of a Dutch van a couple of years ago. It was just a straight respray with an added grille on each side. I think the chassis is around the right size, but the bogies are all wrong. http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/77-Graham-s-Workbench However the original Lima wheels are a bit rough. It would probably be easy enough to buy the correct bogies and scratchbuild a chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
