This is interesting could you elaborate on how you made this? I mean, what
parts do you need? Did you rig one from a 504 wagon rear (solid rear)? Details
please! :)

I've seen a Fiat X1/9 pulling a trailer that was a rear section of another
X1/9... Saw also the same with a Beetle.

Cool. There are a few people on the list with interest in planes. G. Nunez
models airplanes for example, and I collect books on planes and fly flight
simulators (Pro Pilot 99 for the past year, mostly on the Bonanza V35 and
Cessna Citation Jet).
