To make up for loosing my Mojo... M101cdn military trailer

[Abitibi]

After a few years of looking for a good base and many failed attempts to find one that wasn't a rust basket selling for the price of my 1st born I finally found what I was looking for, and way more!

It's the well known 1/4 ton M101 Canadian military trailer, nothing special about it (yet) but it came fully restored along with a bunch of extras. I'm sure glad I never went for the lesser ones in the previous years! I'm naming it "Vasek" as it's my "make me feel better" gift for going under the knife today...:victory:

Cheers,
Mr. D

Now that looks mint!!

Nice find.

Nice...that thing looks brand new. is it a rebuilt one by the military?

 

[Pikeman]

Good looking trailer, I think i would have called it Tomy instead as it is easier to say than Vasek. Do yourself a favor and stay off your feet literally for the next 24 -48 and your recovery time will be greatly reduced with a lot less pain.

Get a couple of bags of frozen pea's ... they will become your best friends . :wings:

It's an ex-military one fully restored by the civilians ;-)

And yes, frozen peas & Tylenol are doing a fine job! Turned out to be a lot easier than I thought but I act like it was awful when around my wife, gotta justify that trailer!

Cheers

Hence the trailer's name; "Vasek"... ;-)

Ahhh, i get it now. Ok. My wife hated me when i got mine. She wanted me to feel more pain. She had three kids each in a different way so she is no stranger to the pain that husbands can induce! Frozen peas did work, but a Six Pack worked even better. Get it ice cold. Place it between your legs then drink one at a time. By the time the six pack is gone, you wont feel anything. I was up and walking the next day. The most pain i felt was that dull aching sensation a man gets when he is kicked in the gonads. Went away after a few days.

Oh, and nice trailer. nice and clean. Great find

Argh...I have one of "those" scheduled for a few weeks. Cant wait! oh wait...

Hey Abitibi, I just realized where I have seen you and that trailer before, over on Overland Canada. lol Small world. Great score, only $600 more than I paid for mine, and mine needs a full repaint.

Awesome trailer. Wish they had more of those in the states. What a beauty. I would name it something else though, you want it to remind you of something fun I would think. :ylsmoke:

A VASEC is fun!!!!. Well not initially, but after its done, its all practice without any fear of acquiring an 18 year car payment:av-7:

I'm still surprised it was advertised for 3wks and no one bothered before me. For the price it even came with the Hi-Lift Extreme and mount, a nice full size axe and mount on the other side and a adjustable pintle hitch adaptor... Tires were brand new as well, hand brake works nice and tight, tailgate already done... List goes on. I'd get another vasectomies for a trailer like this!

And for those about to go under the knife, if you have a specialized doctor it's a walk in the park. Seriously! Don't think I would have used my family doctor though...

Cheers,
Mr. D

I was tempted not to tell my wife I was getting it done then talk her into trying for one more baby... ;-)
Would have made for some good time!
