Service Bed Trailer Build

So I finally tracked down some vintage jeep rims for the trailer. They will be a close match to my jeep.
Im having them shipped from Michigan and then will begin work on them.

Here they are... Whats all that white stuff on the ground??

Those will look better than the Dodge van wheels you have on now.
How are the salvage yards in Florida?

Yeah, I didnt realize my jeep had dodge rims till I started looking for trailer rims. hmmm... I like the dodge rims... smoother looking.
But since Im a fan of irony, I will only put jeep rims on the trailer

Salvage yards are OK. Things rust like crazy here because of the humidity

Update… It’s been nine years since I finish the trailer.

after completing it, I rarely used it As I started a family with small kids. I sold it to a guy I know, I told him if he ever was to sell it to give me first rights. Well, he called me up the other day so I purchased it back. I had not even seen it in five years.
He had big plans of living out of it as he traveled the country, but I guess life happens… And he’s about to be married.
So I agreed to free up some space in his backyard.

I cleaned it up this weekend, some of the paint is flaking off, there’s a bit more rust, the door seals need to be replaced, and it just needed an overall cleaning. Overall, it’s in great shape, and I am looking forward to getting it going again to camp with my family.
