From the Volvo website:
Cargo Capacity 12.9 cu.ft./Towing Capacity 2000 lbs.

I wanted to add a tow hook/hitch to a Volvo C30 to use in my diorama village. Unfortuntely in my box o' parts, there wasn't a hitch to be found. However, I did have a tv/dvd screen with a dowel type protrusion on it leftover from some other project. I used the dremmel to gouge out a small space on the bumper for it, then super-glued it into place.

The trailer is an old Majorette Horse Trailer that I had lying around.

Although it actually looks fairly decent, my pics do not. This is the best I could come up with.

Whatcha think?

Great job. How does it look towing the little camper?

Wow that was fast - it looks neat! (You're gonna hate me, but I meant the little silver teardrop trailer - plus it's kind of shaped like the Volvo. Thanks just the same!)

It's all good :wave:

The tear drop camper is a Siku Tab trailer that came from...well..."there" again. It was part of set with a yellow Beetle hardtop.

I'll have to post a pic later as the camera batteries are on the charger.
