Picked up a M416 trailer

[gotricesmurf]

Just got a M416 trailer in decent shape. The start of my trailer build. Since I'm still in Georgia for training I'll have TK wait until I get back home to TX in a couple of weeks to actually start the process. In the mean time I will be researching more and more on how I want to go about this build but really can make a decision until I get home and strip he tub and frame. Previous owner had it for quite some time sanded it down and painted it, and used roll on bed-liner for the tub but that's all starting to chip and flake off.

Just a few pics from picking it up today.

Do you mind posting what it cost you?

Ended up getting it for $1k, out of the few I've come across this one was in the best shape and was also cheapest.

Looks like the 1/4 ton trailers are getting hard to come by - in descent shape nowadays. Congrats on your find.

Great find! I've been torn between one of those and an enclosed 4x6x4

Thanks, yeah it's been hard locating an original in decent shape, I know they sell kits to build it, but no fun in that, but I'll still end up ordering pieces from jeep parts to restore it.
