    A lot of brands give 25 years warranty, so that shouldn't be an issue, and of course you can remove them from your house if you move. I'd say that you should first look at your energy usage, and try to save as much as possible on that. In a lot of cases it's cheaper to use as little as...

    After selling Westfalia cellasto dampers for a couple of years on different websites, I decided to start a webshop of my own. WestyTrailers.com specializes in the little Westfalia Essen trailer (typ 121002). Over the next few weeks more products will be added (rims, tires, more rearlights and...

    He's refering to the swingarm, on the inner and outer side of the swingarm there is one of these bushings. Ok, do you know the brand of the trailer?

    Never seen this, but there could be a small chance that they use the same bushings as these westfalia trailers (apperently some south african bought some rights or something from westfalia, maybe this is his company?) Can you measure the axle? (or even better the flange of the bushing between...

    In principle it is waterproof, but of course if the manufacturer doesn't treat the end grain correct, moisture will get into the end grain and screw up the wood. Or if you have standing water in the trailer for a long time it might get into the wood. Or of course if the top layer gets damaged.

    Wasn't the wood film faced plywood (i believe this is the english term for it)? It's plywood with a plasticy top layer that until a few years ago was used for almost all trailers, and now they still use it a lot for the floors of trailers. Something like this

    Sorry, I meant the catch for the lock in the middle is original. I don't think the catches at each end are original (never seen them).

    So there should be a lock on center of the lid (under the "W" of the rack where there is a rusty spot), i think made by ABUS (my trailer has one made by ABUS (but no keys :| ), but mine is from the 60s) as you can also see on the restored one with the lid. The catch is still there, correct? Lock...

    If you want to make it original (or close to original), from what I can see in the pictures, the following should be done: - The galvanised metal should be "blank", not painted, so strip the paint - The wood shouldn't be painted but varnished (mahogany), also those round thingies to fasten goods...
