Hi Jim and Rich,

The Australian 1 ton trailers were built by Corio Air Engineers of Belmont Victoria. Some had the round guards and the square guards were a replacement at a later stage. Some would have had the square guards from new as well. My trailer has paint marks and has the bolt holes for the round guards but has square guards fitted. A retrofit I guess. My trailer was manufactured in 1959. Some saw service in Vietnam behind the International Mk.3's and F2's.
Regards Rick.
