So I had an awesome write up about my project in this new thread...then adobe flash did something weird and the entire lengthy write up evaporated.
So here's the short version...lol. Bought a late sixties 8' NCO, mounted it to a new 6' x 8' trailer from Tractor Supply. Cut the rails off of the cargo trailer, built a 3/4" square stock frame, skinned it in white aluminum, and mounted vintage cargo doors and vintage vent doors purchased at an RV salvage yard. Done.
I love the post WWII era 1945 - 1949 so I wanted to give the interior that look...without modifying the inside of the trailer. I kept it 100% original...and added a vintage radio, 1940's wall art, and tropical barkcloth curtains that I made myself. I learned through this experience that I HATE to sew...lol.
Anyway, here's the pics. Enjoy and please feel free to ask questions or comment.
