My Yocar Single Wheel
Here it is. This was my first Single wheel trailer. I recently found out that this trailer is a Yocar (Thanks Scott).
I have yet to find out if this is a model or manufacturer name. The age and info on this trailer is very minimal, but
also look at the Yocar page.
If you have any information, pictures or literature about the Yocar trailer, please let
me know. See the description below the Pics for more.
Here are a few pics of my single wheel box trailer.
The Plan
- This trailer is going to be donated to my bus club, to be towed behind
our club bus and eventually behind Scott McWilliams Lunch Wagon.
- The rest of the plan is kept under wraps and will only be revealed
once complete.
Description
- The bottom and sides are made of sheets of Fiberglass, painted white. ?Original?
- Corners are aluminum riveted to the Fiberglass panels.
- Frame is made of squared "U" shaped steel. Maybe Green originally.
The frame has been painted at least twice over what looks to be the original dark forest green color.
- There are bunch of eyebolts all around the trailer, for holding down a canvas top?
- After disassembling the trailer the Fiberglass side and bed area
originality have come into question. These shown here may be
replacements, as some of the edges aren't cut really straight.
- Pretty rough but for $40 and a little work, it will be cool.
Work being done
- 04-16-01 It is completely disassembled and waiting to be
sandblasted.
- Got the wheel assembly back from a friend who rebuilt it for me.
- 11-12-01 Wheel assembly has been POR 15'd and the frame will be
sandblasted soon and given the POR15 treatment.
- Trailer has been donated to Strictly Vintage Type 2's
Parts needed
- Mounting to the vehicle. Look at the pic to see what is there.
I will be making something to resolve this problem.
