Thanks Harry! 👍 ✨ I appreciate your kind comment! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😃

I read that Wally also worked for the Curtis-Wright Aircraft Co. It was then in 1946 that he got the company to start producing the Curtis-Wright trailer. I have one of those limited ones.

Hi Jon ☺ long time no see, this was an interesting video, I didn't know the history on these trailers, and watching you refurbish one will be right on, cheers mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart.uk.

Quite interesting. Looking forward to the repair. Thanks for the look.

[@RightOnJonCrane]

Right On! 👍 Thanks John!

[@victorcontreras9138]

You didn't mention that Wally worked or was involved with the aircraft co. Curtis-Wright. At the end of the war, he initiated C-W on the production of travel trailers by that name. Made from 1946 to '49. I own a '48 and have read a little on their history

[@setdown2]

Love history....can’t wait to see what you use to bring the shine back to the aluminum...why sooooo long between takes. ??

[@RightOnJonCrane]

Right On Chuck! 👍✨ Yes I had to prepare for the job by working on some infrastructure! I did not film that but now I’ll be back to a steady stream of content!

[@JustinBraham-p5e]

Cool I live on a 69 airstream sovereign land yacht

[@RightOnJonCrane]

Oh that’s awesome 👏 I’m sure that is pretty cool. My son is fixing up one for a client now!

[@tomdale1313]
