If you are talking about the ones from boat, I did't pay that much for the trailer.

Pat,

You might try to find a boat salvage/surplus store. We have one in Daytona Beach and their prices are quite reasonable.

A boat salvage yard, wow, I have been to tractor salvage yard. All I have to do is find one, that shouldn't be that hard. There should be one within a hundred mile.:conf

The problem is to find something small enough. Many of us know that ventilation is needed on that end on the trailer. The one that put in the vents, had to put a wedge in the front because of the curve of the trailer. Looks like a good job was done.

I have to finish painting the frame. One wheel has been off and cleaned up and packed. The other wheel is off. We found brakes, they haved never been hooked up. My trailer expert tells me that the angle iron the middle of the trailer is bent(I can see that) and the door problem is at least in part a frame problem. Right there by the door. A few of the angle irons on the tongue have to be replaced. Right where the battery sat. The bumper may be redesigned.

Isn't this fun.:jester :jester :jester

The blue foam sleeping pad that I got at Wal-Mart is made of Ensolite as is my white vinyl clad toilet seat. The pads are not large and wouldn't be cost effective for a large area.

Chick out this link for more info on price, etc.

These are the two pieces of an Extase body.

It is the project of Yvon and Jos

They are now doing the frame.
So, there is a lot of work to do.
I'll keep you informed.

Here I am again.
The frame and the axle are ready to be mounted.

Yes Chester. The new BIOD has got one too (again).

Chester, I dunno about up there in EhLand, but down here in the USofA, we call a two-piece door like that a "Dutch Door", very appropriate in this case! <grinz>

Is that so? There are a lot of houses here with as we call it 'horse door'.
There is one vaguely visible on the painting in the first post of the 'Hello World II' thread.
