M101A1 Restoration & (OD Cargo Cover Found)
Just started a frame off restoration of a 1962 M101A1 trailer. It will be pulled by a 1962 Dodge M37B1 3/4 Ton Truck. Have to make some oak pieces for the rear gate and one bow. The rest of the oak rack and bows were servicable. Found an A2 box that was in great shape and replaced the rotted original A1.
I have a NOS vinyl camouflage cargo cover...if any one has an OD canvas or vinyl one for sale, I would have an interest in buying it.
Next up is to make the internals to make it a camper. Maiden voyage is next year's Route 66 Convoy.

Can't help on the cover but those are two nice looking examples of od steel.

Outstanding duo! Does the trailer slow the M37 down much?

Don't even know the trailer is there!
Found a NOS, OD, M101A1 cargo cover in vinyl last night out of a parts place in Penn.

Re: M101A1 Restoration & (OD Cargo Cover Found)
Nice restoration.. May I suggest that you get the rear drop down support leg. .. it really helps regards loading and unloading especially if you going go use if for camping ...you see them for sale on ebay, etc .. I restored the same trailer for the MVPA Alaska convoy to pull behind my 53 M37 ..and that made a real difference.
