    Trailer repair project

    yes started another project on repairing, or should I say renovating my Ivor Williams P6E trailer. The floor was in a bad state after X number of years. looked at prices from Ivor Williams for a new floor and they wanted £90+vat +delivery or collect from agents 20 miles away. They must be joking. Ordered one off ebay right width but needs a bit cut from the length for £68 including express delivery. it is a proper trailer floor as well.
    So this morning I made a start. First was to remove the alliminium cover and, it is big, then manouvered the trailer to a spare garage space and tipped in on its side with Sues help. Next was to secure it to a roof beam so it didn't tip over and fall on me or anyone. I did check and greased the wheel bearings a couple of months ago and it hasn't been moved since.
    So now I have got as far as removing the old floor

    Now a clean up job and waiting for new floor to arrive in next couple of days.
    This is the new floor I have ordered but will need some off the end to fit
