I worked for Donald Rossi (Trick Paint), Jerrys Brother, In the other Half of the Target Trailer Building. Usually to Pay the rent Jerry made us Go over and Paint the New Trailers, I guess now I can thank Ritchie for that, we had to sand it, prime it, sand it, paint it, then clear it... so yeah, Jerry learned that from Ritchie. they weren't just crudely painted steel trailers.

Hey Pat; I don't know if Peter is still around. I haven't seen him in years. He use to have an office down the street from you, on 18th Street.

Get me his address and I will go over and see.

It was always fun to go talk to Chuck and Danny Oaks. They both taught me a ton. My brother and I used to play in Kudu and Mongoose, those I remember.

Would you know who might have any Target Trailer records from the early 80's I cannot make out all the digits on my trailer and would like to try to get it from the OEM. Very nicely built trailers.
Thanks, Chris

I don't know what happened to the trailer Biz after Jerry passed, I have tried every way I know to conatact Donald (Jerrys Brother) but have been unsuccesfull. I'll keep trying though. I hear he still lives in Miami, that narrows it down some
