Today, July 12, 2009 we drove up to Grass Valley to pick up the Ranger after hiring Michael Donovan, Finish Carpenter, to repair the damaged wood in the galley, door and various other areas. We were really pleased with his work...you can really tell that he takes his trade very seriously. Alot of detail and painstaking work went into repairing and replacing the water damaged wood. There is still more to be done, but at this point, we want to take the trailer camping for the first time in August and also take the Ranger to an upcoming car show to put on display. Even if the trailer restoration is not completed, people will really show enthusiasm for the vintage trailers and so often they will tell you how your display brings back such good memories for them. Makes it well worth towing and hauling all of our vintage camping display "stuff" around. Michael lives in Grass Valley, CA in the Sierra Foothills and is a licensed carpenter. His phone number is 530-477-5906. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his work if you need help with wood repair/restoration for your trailer.
