Hey All

I wish they had more pics of the interior of that trailer to see how it's setup; I understand there was a sleeping position for a third person, But I sure would like to see more and maybe some approx sizes of various parts. Interesting none the less.......I would hate to roll out of bed, or have a bear come calling, you'd be dinner on a plate! LOL

Man, those trailers are awesome! In some ways the industry has came a long way and in others...it has all been done before. The side beds on there are really a good ideal when it comes to speed of setting up camp. I can see why folks went to tents but still a great ideal.

Thanks again for sharing the pics! I was also glad to see the old HLJ pics folks were posting on another forum.

Cheers!

second trailer

I have an old 4x4 magazine that has that in it. I have kept it for years because of the cool factor.

I just pulled it out. It is the August 1989 Four Wheeler. The article is called Tag-Alongs. Trailers for the trailbound. Five different trailers, including the white '48 Willys trailer, Bronco, Mustang and two others.

Also in the 60s were a few members of Santa Barbara 4wd club had trailers like those.
