Hi,
I am a proud new owner of a 1957 Westerner. Does anyone have any remembrances of the color schemes of these trailers. I can go online and find some, but they are most likely modern combinations of bare aluminum or painted tops and the lower trademark W pattern.
I ask because, I can't figure out what color mine was. It was repainted at one point. The lower half looks to have been a brown, but a dark mustard color is below it. Quite yuckie if you ask me, but it might have been a faded brown, but that seems like it wouldn't be of the period.
The duel striping at the top of the brown is actually a grey or a greyed bare aluminum. I can't tell. Seems weird that it would be grey paint stripes. Shinyness is peaking through a deteriorated white top half.
Cheers,
Rod
