I wanted to start a separate thread in case others were looking for a more cost effective option for a cover for their M416 and M100 Trailers.
The 5x7 tarp was purchased from Tarpsplus.com for $20.65. I'll post the link below. I know it might not be built to original specs for a perfect restoration, but it looks darn good to me and fit my budget as well. I chose to buy the Ball Bungees to hold it down and the grommets in the tarp lined up perfect with the loops on the trailer. In the future I plan to build a "skeleton" underneath to raise it up to keep water from puddling up, but then again it will be stored inside all the time and the tarp only needed when I am on the road and bad weather is expected.
