Default Re: How many tow trailers with their "A"?

Hey René, I don't have brakes on this trailer, I do however have cast drums with bonded and arch'd shoes on. The engine is still standard, meaning original cam with no perfomance modifications done to it. The trailer weighs about 600 pounds. You do notice it back there. The axle is the original one that came with the camper. This camper was built sometime in the 40's. I was lucky that the axle spindle used the same bearings as the front bearings on the Model A. So my wheel hubs are model A fronts with old drums, thus giving the 19" A wheels the proper support needed on the back of the rim. I've owned this camper for 33 years now, and have good memories of taking my girls camping and fishing with it. Jeff
