    Hi all, I’ve finally got around to restoring my binned stores trailer. I’ve reconstructed the front draw bar with new C channel and original handbrake assembly, I’m going to weld it on and insert through bolts just to make sure it doesn’t break off It might be a rolling trailer minus the binned stores by this Easter?? I don’t have a jeep anymore to tow it 😂

    I haven't done much to the trailer since last time I posted, work and family commitments took priority! i have some spare time this week and I'm hoping to sort the draw bar out this week and get a rolling chassis. hey Richard do you have any spare bodywork for me to copy ??

    Hi all, does anyone have a picture of the inside of the draw bar channel, I'm making one for my trailer but I'm not too sure how the hand brake ratchet plate attaches on the inside?? Dave

    H John, I was the other high bidder on the trailer, it wasn't advertised very well and I thought I'd struck lucky, glad it's gone to a good home though. it looks taller than the other one you had. Dave

    The wheel and tyre are from a triang pedal car j40 I think Dave

    I just need 5 more I think? I'm thinking of getting them made up on a 3D printer and then casting them out of pewter as a trial and then brass later? thanks for listing them

    Hi all, I'm still in the process of gathering parts to restore my 10cwt stores trailer and I need some more locker door catches, I recently acquired 3 on eBay but I need a few more. does anyone have any stashed away or know a person / location where there may be some? regards Dave

    Hi Ian, I was also thinking it could be used for picking parachutes up off the battlefield???? Dave

    Looks like a laundry trolley from a hospital, the tyres may have a data stamp on them?? Dave
  20. Griffo
    Gpws up to late 43 have F marks and Gpw stamped in a few places which helps, mbs and all gpws after 43 have the body number stamped into the toe board gusset. Dave

    Could have been based at usaaf honnington? But I suppose it's the needle in haystack situation as the whole of Norfolk was an airbase!! Dave http://www.eafa.org.uk/catalogue/805

    Usaaf air transport command, usually the army uses the left bumperette for the division = atc, then the company letter and then the number of the vehicle in the column 4e, but not too sure about the usaaf?? Dave

    £150 for 2!, that makes a few normandy farmers a little richer as there's loads of their fences made out of this stuff!! Dave
