    Default Yep...another M101 CDN2 Build.

    A 5 year dream finally taking shape. Took me 4 years to find a trailer in good enough shape that I was willing to spend the money on. Took it completely apart and had it sandblasted and powdercoated. Replaced all the bolts, except the suspension bolts, with stainless steel. The lid is being built for it as we speak. Updates as soon as i get it back. Enjoy!

    Looks great! I still have a few more items on the list before I complete my M101 CDN build too, but would love to tear mine apart and paint it at some point! Enjoy it!

    The tent is the next thing on the list to order. And hopefully I will be placing an order with Martyn out at Adventure Trailers for an awning setup soon.

    Very kool indeed... I guess I am lucky my search for one only took me about 6 months. Then again I am in Canada...and they are a lot more common here. I need to paint and prep mine, would love to fully disassemble it and blast it, for now it is in such good shape with such minor rust it isn't really necessary to go that far.

    Will be following this.

    Nice work. How about some specs, dimensions, material and thickness, etc.
