    trailor talk!!

     



    found this neat little trailor in rotorua that had been previously built by my hotrod club 28yrs ago, to carry an promote a ford v8 they were raffling.the winner got the trailor an motor. we all forgot about till someone was talking to me about my oldsmobile an it came up that it was sitting rotting in his neighbours yard. I bought it for $100 an it was in pretty good shape considering.
    i'm going to restore it for our 50yr reunion next year.

    so I stripped it down and cleaned the rust off it and primed the chassis. Waiting to talk to the original signwriters about reproducing the rear graphics to see if it will have new paint or just clear over the old..

    Definately worth keeping the graphics! Great score for 100.00 bucks and great that you are restoring it!

    I like the graphics sharpmark; but a Mk II Zephyr 2 door?
    Whose was that and what happened to it?
    I've only ever seen one other; Neill Moore from Waipawa...and he built it himself.
