I am new to the Forum. My wife and I are starting a restoration on 1950 Westcraft Sequoia Trolley Top. We are now in the process of stripping the six coats of paint on the outside. Any information I can get off these boards would be appreciated. The trailer is pretty much complete except i am missing 1 window above kitchen sink where they cut it out and put another window. If any one know what windows where used in this trailer i have outside frame but i am missing the frame that went around the glass. www.flickr.com/gp/133597948@N06/44G38c

Welcome, good to see another "old trailer" here! Looks like a large "five window" Trolley Top.
You will need to contact Chris (aka Trailer Trasher) for the replacement window. Looks like your windows might be Woodlin, or Keene brand? Send him some photos of your windows, and the rough opening size required for the missing window. Chris is very knowledgeable and a good guy to work with, on hard to find parts.
Good luck with the restoration.
