I'm doing something like that, with styrene sheets. You could basically make a four-sided box, with the missing side facing the rear. Looks boxy and surely doesn't have any panache, but will work.
Or at least I hope it will work ;).

Yes that's a good idea, let me paint another one and I will try that.

Thanks for the idea!  :wave:

As an idea, what about using a box body from these vehicles?

6621 - 1.2.3 Circus

6708 - Ambulance

Admittedly I have no idea of the size of them or the caddy :-[ but it is an option worth considering I think

Unfortunately they are out of scale. 123 clickies are bigger. and the vehicles are disproportionated.

Surely that has no relevence :hmm: the whole body of that truck is only a locker cupboard to the caddy

I've just had a look at my ambulance, and I reckon 2 bodies should fit on the back of the caddy.

Hey Damo,

That's actually a pretty good idea but, I'm afraid I think its a bit too big. Do by any chance know the size of those box bodies? Just wondering.
