Ifor Williams HB505 timeline?

[Haz:)]

Just wondering if someone could give me a brief timeline on the evolution of the HB505.

Any significant changes that were made etc and an approximate year would be helpful.

For example, I’m noticing some have just a front ramp to unload, and others have a top door and ramp. Some seem to have non-swinging dual leg partitions and some single leg swinging partitions.

Looking at some trailers and wondering what the approximate date they’re from as most people don’t seem to know.

Many thanks

If you're just interested in finding out how old it is, you can contact Ifor with the serial number.

Only thing I know is in the mid 2000's they moved to aluminium floors.

If you look on the tow bar of the trailer there should be a plate attached staying year of manufacture

Mine is 2007, basic HB505, front and rear unload. Butterfly partition, solid top, rubber flappy bottoms.
