A new door is absolutely required before any normal sized person can get in there. :?

Then again, that could be a selling point.

Yep Arnie, looks like she is dry rotted real bad, someone smashed the drip rail in the back to add hinges, might be able to save the axle's and rails of the trailer but I think the cab is trashed.. Jim G :( :(

Just my opinion, but I'd rather build one from scratch than try to rebuild that one. :thumbdown:
