1/24 1/25 scale car trailers?

Does anybody know of a company that makes 1/24 or 1/25 scale car trailers I have a few I would like to put on trailers for my diorama but can not find any.

I would love to find a car trailer for my 1/28 Peterbuilt flat bed truck. It doesn't have to be diecast just to where I could load them on the truck.

Revell has one boxed with a 1/4 midget race car and one with a racing crew, there were also several older kits that included trailers. look on ebay and I bet you find one

I remember Honoturtle making a how to thread about making trailers awhile back. Look at Jays "How To: and Tutorial" thread.

AMT/Ertl made a clear display case type trailer.
Galaxie also made some car trailers from 21ft up to 44 ft. two tag alongs and two goose necks I believe. I have a 24 footer from galaxie.
These would be your best bet for kits, otherwise scratch building is your other option.

the revell kit is an easy build but is now proving troublsome to find. the galaxie kits are pretty, i have one, the 36 footer i believe but not the gooseneck one. fairly easy to build too. model express always seems to have them in stock and the revell trailers are aways on ebay. i have both but all of my models are back home.

A few months ago, my dad got me to order a copy of the Ecklers Corvette catalog from their site. I remember it had a few 1/24 and 1/18 scale trailers in the catalog. You can probably order them from the site, but I would just order a catalog, since its free. www.ecklers.com
