a defunct company in Guntersville named ''Best Built'' made up of TVA welders .. being Goverment employees it has some ugly welds.. but its built heavy and solid you know its back there.. its 18 X 6.. probably the last stock trailer ill ever own

 

[denvermartinfarms]

I thought it looked bigger than16ft, but not 20ft. Don't see many 18s around.

I've got a '97 model I reworked top to bottom. Don't look that good and probably worth less. :frowns: Course your's is longer and has a metal top. ;-) You did a good job.

 

[ALACOWMAN]

Gorgeous.

thank you.. thought it might be little to flashy for a cattle trailer.. but i wanted a newer look... i removed all the moldings and polished em with a kit my son bought for some aluminum wheels, they were nearly black with oxidation
