Boss found a trailer FREE!!!!!

SO as most of you know I have been looking for a trailer for some time now. At work about 2 months ago I came across this old girl sitting in the far back corner of the High Volatage shop and started asking if I could have it.. Finally found out today that its mine and all I have to do is get it out of here. She is not much to lkook at but its all there (except the tail gate) I am soo excited !!

Comment by Boss73 on March 23, 2009 at 3:55pm: Yeah Its great !! I am not sure if its an M416 or a Bantam trailer. Either way I cannot beat the price. GRM said he had a spare that I can use so I have to make sure its the right bolt pattern. I could not believe I found this old girl sitting in the corner of one of our lots !! Thought it was an old jeep bed trailer but I don;t think so anymore. Once I have a couple of guys take a closer look at her I will know for sure. I plan on using a flat bed trailer to get it out of there and home . I am hopeful after a couple of weeks I will be able to get it home.

After reading all of the resto forums on mud, it looks like replacing the wheel bearings prior to towing is importante. FANTASTIC find!

Comment by Boss73 on March 20, 2009 at 10:31pm: I am not sure.. I showed some people and they said it was an old Jeep pickup truck bed put on a trailer frame.
At the meet and greet tonight GRM said he was pretty sure it was an M416. Either way I am one happy boy..
Sometimes its good to be a locksmith on campus and have access to al the back yards of campus.....
