I am restoring an older 2 horse tag-a-long trailer & I'm having a very hard time finding replacement windows for it. It's the standard round front with the 2 small side front windows. meaning they are convex windows. i want to get some that are able to open & close but i cant find any. Can anyone help me find some that will open?

I've made curved windows by heating Lexan in an oven and placing it over a wood and fabric form. If the window frame is already there, the replacement window isn't too difficult to reproduce. My trailers all had fixed windows with moveable vents nearby. I've not seen a curved trailer window that slides open, although it probably exists.

I have been in the trailer repair business for 15 years and have never seen a curved window that would open either on a trailer or in any of the supply catalogs.

We usually send out the damaged trailers we buy but I would also like to know where you get some of your parts like the aluminum sheets for the sides and other parts. If you could send me an email I would appreciate. Thanks. miller230@comcast.net
