New caravel

Hi All

We recently acquired a 1966 caravel, which is in okay condition. However, as with many trailers of its age, it has all kinds of bits on bobs that have been added or "improved" over the years. Anyhow, we are starting out long restoration road, I guess we will post pics here as we progress, hopefuly in the right direction.

By the way, Does anyone know if these caravels came with brakes installed as standard and does anyone have a wiring diagram for this year of caravel?

Cheers
Caius

Ten inch brakes were used in all the Caravels of that vintage.

What wiring diagram do you need?

You, more than likely, have aluminum wiring in your '66 and should be aware of that so you can plan accordingly when you are going to work with the wiring.
