Looking good, Man.....The trailer looks pretty good.....I have a couple of these that need building....I've just never seen a canvas trailer on a container chassis, before.....It's always bugged me.....Doesn't mean it can't be done, though......Can't wait to see this one finished.....Just gotta see what you do to it..... :)

have found some time to make the trailer a little dirt

but for i go on a must do the tirline gold-yellow [ thats the line you see zigzag on the sail ]

than you can close the trailer and the customs put a seal on , than when you came on the border the customs from that country check the seal of its not broken
