Canadian trailers
 
This forum has been helpful earlier, so I thought I'd try again. :thup2:

There's a guy selling a trailer that he says might be canadian. It's big enough to fit behind a GMC or later deuces. It has blackout switch on the trailer. This might be ww2 or post-war. So where should I look to find photos of these trailers? Can anyone help me?

An obvious place to look for pictures of Canadian trailers is here, of course :)

Could very well be you have come across a 20-cwt trailer, see the thread Canadian 20-cwt GS Trailer for information and pictures. The survial rate of 20-cwt trailers in Norway is relatively high. Mine came from there, too:

If you have pictures of, please share!

HTH,
Hanno

P.S.: these trailers are not meant to be towed by GMC 2.5-ton trucks but by proper Canadian 15-cwt or 3-ton trucks ;)

A variation on a theme, it could also be a Trailer, Workshop Servicing, 20-cwt, 2-wh
