1947 Higgins Vintage Camp Trailer on CL

All the usual no's: affiliation, connection, etc...

Saw this and thought someone might find it as cool as I do and maybe has the scratch to purchase it and turn it into a nice offroad camp trailer.

Man, that's some authentic Americana.

Kurt,

that is sort of what I was thinking when I first saw this...how cool it would look being towed by an old series Landcruiser (both having aluminum bodies and all), or an ooooold Powerwagon, Jeep, or something like that.

Sure hope someone grabs that an restores it as it could be fixed up really nice. Maybe even with a nice backpackers woodstove inside???

Same Higgins?

Anyone know if it is the same Higgins that designed and built landing craft and PT boats during the war?
