Default skeletal Gazebo

Bob,
Do you have a photo of the skeletal gazebo structure? Better still do you have a war time photo of the trailer in all its glory?? ie with hood bows and gazebo? Does anyone know what typre of brakes it would have had if any? This one appears to have had air brakes at some time.

Thanks again
Darren
