What will you be using for the seats.....not more alligator I hope....I mean it would be awesome but would have to be VERY costly..... I'm sure you have something cool up your sleeve.....Rock On Bob!!!!

Been a lousy spring, heart really given me a run for my money!! Finally getting this together. We decided to go with diamond plate insted of expanded metal for the seats ... easier on the butt!! I said "but theres so much more to polish"!! The welder said ... "here's a rag .. get after it!!"

LOL

So the nose of the trailer was going to be a 3x4 piece of diamond playe ... shiney but boring. So I decided to make it a "picture frame"!! This is 1/4" thick aluminum, which will be mounted on a piece of PVC, with a diamond plate surround. Cool?? It's 28" across, roughly, big horsey!!!
