Rebuilding A M101A1 Need A couple of Parts

[1943ht]

ALCON: AM almost done sandblasting, priming and painting all of my trailer hardware so that I can start cutting wood etc .. I am in need of two items .. Looking for two steel stakes that support the trailer cover bows .. These are the first two stakes that fit into the pockets on the trailer .. One stake has 2 hinges for the end=gate and the second stake is just a plain stake .. but not short like the third stake. I have both stakes but they are so bent that they have tears in the metal and I don't think that I can straighten them well enough for a decent fit.. Does anyone have a couple of spare stakes that they would like to sell? Pics provided

Take them to a welding shop and they will fix them up for cheaper than you can buy.

Was able to do a little Smithy work with the torch , hammer and a couple of steel blocks .. after a little welding they look pretty good and fit nicely into the stake pockets on the trailer ..
