Cadet Niewiadów n126e_d
Welcome!
First of all I would like to highlight that our English skills are very poor (usually we use google translator) but our passion for fiberglass is huge.
That's why we would like to invite you mostly to our photo report. We are always willing to help or advise and we will do it the best we can.
I would like to shortly describe you our fiberglass trailer, that we have bought two years ago for 500$ and we have renovated it.
It was in a very bad condition, upholstery was dropping out and furniture was falling apart. There were holes in fiberglass and it was leaking through.

I like the size and streamlined shape Paul. There is a lot of potential in your caravan. I am always amazed to see what people can restore. Thanks for sharing your pictures.

Your Cadet looks like a great trailer. I'm a 'lurker' on this website and do not currently own an egg but I would like to. Recently I've been searching the internet and looking at some great, small trailers in Europe... some excellent designs. I know Europeans buy vintage American trailers and ship them across the Atlantic. I wonder how much it would cost to do the reverse and have a small trailer shipped from Europe to the USA.

I like it!
What do you plan to use for insulation / wall covering?

WOW Again... It looks as if it is NEW, incredible tasks and results.
I Like your "Low" wheels idea. Is that to get it into the work area.

Paul has come up with a great way that I haven't seen before to get your trailer as low as possible to get through a low garage door. Even lower than a bare rim....good job Paul.

Paul, is that styrofoam insulation between the ribs on the floor? Nice job on the wall and ceiling covering. The colors look good together. You do good work!
