T panel is made from single sheet. The red reflectors are simply glued on with 5min epoxy. Ill have at least one of the T plates at the OMVA swap meet in a couple of weeks.

Very nice work Jordan.

I have the exact same trailer.

A very nice fellow from Vancouver, Robert Morrison sold it to me a couple of years ago.

It is complete and closely modeled after original as far as i can tell from your drawings and pictures.

You can email me your questions and i will take pictures and measurements.

Robert M did a superb job.

Good luck .

Default Simplicity.....

Thanks for the tip Jordan.

Grant was trying reproduce them with the same two sheet of light steel...one being the backing the other being the raise T section done with a bead roller...... but most of the reflectors we found have a very thick cross section..... we were copying from an old rusted original that I have.....

Cheers

Nice job you are doing again.

Hello Robert,

I have also a 10 cwt Canadian trailer I'm going to restore; it is fairly complete but it misses the two ancillaries boxes:

In your previous post the measures were:

(The box measures 24'' high X 28 '' wide outside measure). Could you please provide also the lenght?

Has your trailer also the other box (placed in the right rear side of the trailer)? In case affirmative, could you please provide the measures?

Thanks in advance for your kindness and help

Have a nice Weekend,

Best Regards,

Luigi
