Looks pretty much original. You might find some old school bus tires for a pretty good price. Make sure the wheels aren't "Widow Makers" tho.

Any trailer supplier such as Wabash or Utility can supply you with a door. If its a roll door, figure on about $1OOO for a drop in. If its swinging door, you can get the parts for about half that. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2007 Posts: 128 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2007 Posts: 128 | its quite faded and a little tough to read but ive figured out what company name is on the sides of the box,its the Hawaiin Express & Dillon Drayage Co.
