Trotwood Trailers were made rite here with in 3 miles of me. The buildings now are oppuied by Dever Bros who build and install Dumpboxes,snowplows , flatbeds on any truck. I believe most of the buildings are still standing.

Hi Group, It's true our beloved AS trailers have little in looks to associate with these SOB units. However, these trailers can be a great and cheap source of parts from time to time. Humphrey gas lamps inside, Dometic refrigerators, door handles (few matches), cabinet hardware, jalousie window hardware and operators, are but a few of the things you can "get" from another type trailer. These old beauties are great for us vintage owners. I have a few parts trailers in the back yard (Shastas).
