Re: [VAC] Early style awnings, info needed

[Tryke@xxxxxxx]

                        Bill, thanks for the info. The previous owners were 
WBCCI members #5384. Their name plate is still on the trailer. It says,"the 
Bastions,Rowland and Mae,Spring Valley".  There is only one storage tube 
under the trailer. In the back storage there are half a dozon home made from 
rebar tent stakes, and screw jacks. So ,I think the tube may be for awning 
poles. The mounts are curb side and don't apear to be sturdy enough to be 
ground braces. The two peices that fit the mounts look like 3/4I.D. metal 
tubes fit over them. I've seen some pics of older trailers with simple 
awnings like you described. I have a pretty strong suspicion all the said 
items are for the now missing awning. I have also seen pics of awnings that 
look like they roll up into a case/bag that stays attatched to the awning 
rail. Too bad this trailer can't talk,it obviously has seen some seriouse 
miles.      later,     Trike
