"I have seen a few of the Ladybug trailers around So Cal and Baja. Nice." Interesting. I've never seen another in all the years I lived in coastal SoCal. I always fancied that the company stayed in business only long enough to make just one -- the prototype -- which is in my possession. Seems like there would be a market for such a trailer. The frame is not tough to build, the leaf springs, bearings, and axle are off-the-shelf parts, same for the wheels and the tires (they are beefy for a small trailer, being ST175/80D13); but I have no idea how to make the molds for the fiberglass body parts: fenders, lower tub, upper lid, nor anything at all about how to make the body parts once the molds are in hand. -- Jack "Rocket j Squirrel" Elliott 1984 Westfalia, auto trans, Bend, Ore.
