This trailer is pretty much done. Ive been waiting since this past fall for some warm weather as I still needed to paint the original combat rims after getting them back from the sandblaster. I gave the rims a nice coating of POR15 then did the usual steps of tie-cote primer and finished with Olive Drab. When I rebuilt the rims I ended up replacing the rim bolts.

New made Firestone tires were used, wow do they look great. They have all the proper period correct markings on them. A nice touch is that the modern DOT/safety markings are done in very fine print just above the bead lock on one side only. When I installed the rims, it is almost completely covered up. Combined with putting it on the inside face you can't see it. New tubes and flaps were also used.

Can hardly wait to see gravel in front of the barn soon!

Well I built a second 10cwt trailer recently. Although this one is a bit smaller and fits in the palm of my hand.
