    I have been doing nothing but work on our trailer the past few weeks. We really want to use it this summer, so I have no other choice if we're going to make it.

    I finally have all the stripping done, the frame fixed, and windows bought. Also I was setting there looking at it the other day, and got to thinking about the trunk my Dad used to have on the back of his Model A. I tried it and it fits! Always good to have extra cargo space!

    Also I finally know what it is. It was built by the Air Corps. for the army in WWII. Explaines all the olive drab green paint.

    Here is a shot of how it looks now, you can see a couple of spots I have polished on the nose.
