    Well I brought this "Heavy Farm Trailer" home. So it looks to be the T3-C. It towed back 30 miles without a problem. Trying to figure out if i just make a box for it or try to save for a bantam tub. But not sure of its value if i spend that money for it. :(. Still for the price of $125 i dont think i will lose anything on it. So nice to tow with a regular ball hitch. No noise when driving. :)

    Wow $125 is great bargain, even if it's just a plan ol' trailer

    A little flatbed would be handy at times...

    This brings me back to when I bought my Spen model S. The guy I bought it from said the tires were good, but it literally lasted 5 miles down the road before one exploded.

    Of course I bought it on a Sunday evening and everything was closed, with a 150 mile drive ahead. Luckily a big hoss high school linebacker and his buddy happened upon my situation, and we hucked the trailer end-over-end into the bed of my f150 :sneak:

    Ah, good memories...

    aallison 74 cj6, 76 cj5. Has anyone seen my screwdriver?

    Nice trailer. The one for my lawn mower cost more than that.

    I'd love to find something like that.

    Well I finally got some work done to the trailer. I removed the old coupler that was pretty janky. Added a new extension to give me a little more length on the tongue, new coupler.. Pulled the wood off and hit the frame with some rusty metal primer and paint. Replaced the bottom wood with some plywood. Bought some fenders and put them on. I still need to sand and paint the wheels. I have a total of $230 into it including the cost of the trailer. Eventually i will try and save for the body kit. But i am liking this now, no fear of hurting it :)
