The Kari-Keen Trunk weather-proof cover When one had a Kari-Keen Trunk installed onto his or her Model A Ford, they could of purchased a "weather-proof cover" for the trunk itself.
Does anyone have one of these original covers that you could show us? Thanks. Pluck |

Re: The Kari-Keen Trunk weather-proof cover Funny a trunk that sits on the back of a car through all kinds of weather needs a weather proof cover?

Re: The Kari-Keen Trunk weather-proof cover Just a point of clarification- the Kari-Keen trunk cover DID NOT fit over the closed trunk. It was much larger, intended to cover the contents of an opened, extended Kari-Keen. I believe it was made of cotton duck, like a tent or open car top, and folded up for storage inside the Kari-Keen when it was not extended open. Not just a cover for a closed trunk!
I saw the rotten remnants of one inside a trunk at Hershey many years ago and I believe it was that WWI brownish army tent color. I have no idea how it attached. Possibly fasteners like used in open cars. I would imagine if one had a Kari-Keen that was factory ordered with one there may be some signs of fastener attachment points on the trunk itself??? |
Re: The Kari-Keen Trunk weather-proof cover I know this is not what you are asking for, but there is info in the lower right hand corner for the cover. Maybe someone with better eyes can make out the wording.http://www.atticpaper.com/prodimages...B/karikeen.jpg

I am surprised that the newspaper article in post #7 did not mention that Kari-Keen also built airplanes.

Re: The Kari-Keen Trunk weather-proof cover I would like to build one of these trunks. Does anyone have one or have dimensions or drawings?

Re: The Kari-Keen Trunk weather-proof cover We have a dozen or two of them, if you want to buy one. They are not pricey.
