British airborne trailer


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

My no1 mk1 ss cars trailer is sadly missing the original data plate. Is there any other way to find out the original numbers? I’m going to see what’s underneath the latest paint but I doubt there will be anything sadly

 

many thanks 

Alfie

This is one those if questions if your trailer remained in service after ww2 then it would have had a new style number post 1949 most of these trailer had new numbers in the  00 YK 01 TO  30 YK 40 and in some case's the numbers were stamped into the metal chassis frame . If you find a number like this then a search of the no 2 key cards held by the RLC MUSEUM will shed a little of its history including a ww 2 number AS l said it's all about IF's

Funny enough, I’ve just got the key card! I’ll attach a picture below. So is the original wartime X number 6213778? If so, it means this was in the S8055 contract with the no1 MK2’s (though my trailer is a no1 mk1)3204BCD6-D8E9-4A05-906D-181FBCCF1C3E.thumb.jpeg.51a1204c146d4b6fa7581782eefca980.jpegCBC096D8-D083-4F44-BAA9-C6F2DF340B9D.thumb.jpeg.065b6125f2a933812a9531f20818a205.jpeg

Do you need a plate like this? £25 made to order.
