Re: 70's Wilison Cattle Trailer
What about a varnish or a stain? Just an idea, but it would show more of the wood and grain than paint.

Re: 70's Wilison Cattle Trailer
I took a trip to Lee's Summit MO today and passed what looked to be an old wilson trailer sales lot or maybe a manufacturing building. It had Wilson Trailers on the sign and had a lot of older trailers (mostly van body) sitting out front. I was just off of I70, danged if I remember were though.
Just did a google search of Wilson Trailers and they have a sales lot on I70 in Columbia MO. Last edited by mazdaparts; 01-14-2012 at 11:21 PM. Reason: Damn Google. |

So I got a little time today and got most of the back finished on mine.. I made the rear light panel and bumper and also the roll up door.. Tristin has also been building one for a member on the board "GUN" here is his trailer. The sides come off for ease of wiring and painting.. Rear section If there is enuff interest this is the state we will be finishing them to, to sell all you will have to do is add a few detils if you choose and put running gear on it and paint it.. Now GUN asked us to finish his all the way we can do that too for extra we will see.. I guess if there is not enuff interest then these will be the only 2 we make.. Thanks For looking..

Re: 70's Wilison Cattle Trailer
How are you doing the roll up door? I learned a trick a while ago watching Norm Abrams build a roll top desk. He cut all the individual pieces and then glued them to a piece of canvas.

Re: 70's Wilison Cattle Trailer
These are sweet trailers. I bet you'll get enough interest to crank out at least a handful more. Not so different from the old stock cars that used to haul cattle on the railroads, back in the 60s and 70s. The construction is really close to that, and they used to use wood too.
Just looking at the shelves in the back ground, I have to ask - how many trucks do you own now? It looks like you have one for ever member on this forum!
