Found this up the road. It originally came from Arizona. So its fairly rust free. Except for two small holes. And the floor has some pretty good surface rust. There are no dents other than the floor. It is wavy around the cross struts. Where it looks like firewood or rocks got tossed in. But the floor is still very solid. The tub needs a blast and about 30 minutes worth of welding. Then it could be painted and bedlined inside. Its titled as a homemade. Which obviously its not. It appears to me like a early 60s late 50s civilian Bantam or something maybe. Or is it just a good solid M416? It has no badges or ID numbers on it anywhere. Despite what appears to be original greyish paint. There is no parking brake. It does have two spring loaded drain holes in opposing corners. There are six small holes on the upper right rear. That looks like some kind of badge was there. The guy said the wheels are original on it. I seriously doubt they are factory. Since they are two different colors. It has a 2" tongue welded on it. That does not appear original. It seems like a pretty good start. But he is asking a good bit. I would have to put tires on it right away also. This would be my first trailer. So I am kind of a newbie to these. What would you guys pay for this? And is it collectible or rare enough? That I shouldn't mess with it much? I was planning on doing a tailgate mod at some point. And putting a lid on it. What say you?
