    I love builds like yours, when the Ponderosa Ranch was open the owner Bill Anderson built many trailers using barn wood siding, his wife still has several on display in downtown Dayton, NV. We have been discussing building a few of these type tears and larger trailers for our local parades in Virginia City and Dayton. Rat rods are very popular around here and these would look great towed behind them.


    I built a rolling icebox years back using a model A frame and a 50's refrigerator laid down, model A tail lights on back, painted to match tow vehicle, held a lot of iced beverages at Hot August Nights back in the day.

    It's a hoot and I love it. I think this would be the buzz of the campground and any gathering. Whimsical and fun.

    Looks great! I saw someone take an oval washtub and cut it in half diagonally and they used those for fenders. It looked awesome. It was more than likely someone on this site so if you search the posts you will see an example if it. Anyway, keep up the great build! :thumbsup:
