The trailer was a bad buy. Too much money for something so rotted.

The axle housings were rusted through so far you could see the rubber

Cleaning and greasing the bearings

Fitting new axles to a new pressed galvanised axle.

New wire on the winch

Painting the centre bar of the trailer

Just fitted the mudguard supports

Stripped back down and hammerited to stop it rusting

The mast support post

Built this to support the mast in transit and to hold the numberplate

All finished and ready to be tested.

20th May to 28th July. It took 70 days to restore it.
