Hey, my wife and I recently purchased a 1960 Tradewind and are in the midst of restoring. I have a general question I image someone can complete.

What does the 4 digit number on top of the trailer mean? Where can I get replacement numbers? As our are faded and peeling.

Thanks in advance.

If they are big and red, they are WBCCI membership numbers. Do a search for WBCCI and numbers and you will find more than enough info in the historical information. If you want the numbers then you have to check with the WBCCI for availability and join the club. Lots of info here on the pros and cons. I will stay out of that one. You can call them, they will send an info package and let you know about the numbers.

Congrats on your 1960 TW and welcome to the forums. It's great to have you here.

Mike

Hi barilko - Welcome to the Forums! Edina -- my first Minnesota home the day after my 19th birthday. I hope your neighbors are patient with your new project. I hope this is your first question of many -- Mike did a good job of handling it.

Cheers!

Some might well ask,"How do I get all traces off the Trailer". But we wont go there. Welcome to the Forum. The obsession begins

Welcome to the Forums. We're glad to have you with us. The big red numbers on the trailer are the WBCCI membership number of a former owner. The same number may or may not be available. Go to WBCCI.org for further info.
