While wasting my life away on the web waiting for the weather to settle down I came across this! Fiberglass trailers built on Harbor Freight trailer frames. Interesting!
You have to follow the link in the post to Dinoot Trailers to get prices but they don't have the 416 listed.

My M100 trailer (1953 production in Canada) has a big piece of the back panel removed. The tubular reinforcement is still there too. A PO had a piece of plywood that bolted across the hole. I like the idea of a tailgate that locks the two sides to the tailgate, but haven't seen an actual end panel that fires my rockets. Does anyone sell just the back panel?
