A friend of mine had one of these trailers and I really liked it. Then I saw one at Bugorama over Labor Day and I told hubby that we should tell our friend that if he ever decides to sell his, I am interested. So a week goes by and I was browsing a auction website I follow and there it was! I ended up winning it and we go pick it up tomorrow!
I shared it on my FB page and another friend told me that it is a Sears trailer. I did a search and I found out that it was supposed to have a clam shell on top. I guess I need to start learning how to weld. The other friend that has the one I liked, just paid a lot of money to have a top made. I want to attempt to make one myself. For now though, the plan is to sandblast it and get it cleaned up, weld a piece back in the front to fix the slot the PO made in it, and then paint it. It will still be useful even with out a top. Perfect for my Jeep and my Bus.
Here are a few pics the auction company took.
You can see on the tailgate that there is a latch, and also a bracket on the front where it used to have a clam shell. I'm going to look around when I am at the place to see if I can see it laying around.
Can't wait to start on it. As of right now I think I want to paint it white, then put the rest of my purple pin stripe material on it. It would match my Jeep really well and also still look good behind my white VW Bus.
