So, I finally have started on the trailer, I cant do more bike stuff before the trailer is done, so here are some trailer pics, just an refreshing pause from the bike building
(But i am looking forward to start on the bikes again) :woohoo: :silly:



Water resistant plywood for the floor, two lays of it in cross pattern, glued together.
And I will lay an pine wood floor over that again.

My mate Birger, without him, no trailer, easy explained.

Birger is making new wheel housing:

A new steel plate will of course be mounted over the the plywood and some inches down,so it will be covered totally.
And I am looking for some new wheels, in shiny gloss aluminum.

The status so far.

It should not take so long time now before my project can continue in mine shiny gloss aluminum Gipsy's wagon. :laugh:

This is the joining for the alu plates, looks nice.

looks like some very good progress there my friend.are the aluminum panels glued and rivetted or screwed?how do they attach to each other?did birger bend up the "studs"(uprights)or were they purchased as "z"purlings?doesn't look like it will take you gentleman very long to re-create the trailer into a new and much more moto mechanic friendly enviroment :laugh: . so it looks as though it has independant suspension,and is that airbags with shocks?before long roy will have the nicest mobile motorcycle restoration garage in bergen.keep up the good work,and the picture postin .

Thanks my friend! :laugh:

The alu plates are glued and riveted, and they fit perfectly as you see on the last picture, Birger is a skilled man,
Those studs are U profiles. An other mate made those, since he got tools for thicker plates.

Independent suspension as well yes, for a more softer ride! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

You are pulling off what most of us can only dream about. That has got to be one of the most unique and awsome looking J's coming together ever. Keep the updates coming!
