Thanks, quite nice!

Good looking trailers there!
I remember we had those huge corner decals on everything that moved when I was in Germany. We even stuck 'em on the latrine doors!
Did they still have the early tail lights when you got them or did you put them back on to bring them back to an early look?

That's how got them - the green one was restored by the previous owner. I did the MERDC one.
