Anyone know what kind of trailer this is? Or the exact purpose? I am giving it some thought as it is local and I am wanting to do an engineers theme with my vehicles so this would be kind of neat.

I don't know if it an engineers trailer, but at the current price that is cheap. It is an unusual trailer though.

I think what makes the trailer unusual is that its been butchered :x did anyone else notice the military cargo trailer on the ground behind the black Olds :!:

I think that might be a CCKW 352 cargo bed in the background. I messaged him to find out. I am going to go try and look at it if it is a cargo bed.

As it turns out they are CCKW beds however I asked him if they were for sale and he said no.

Well, it looks like I've figured out what it was. Butchered is the correct term to use on this trailer. Take a look at the trailer in the link. I'm pretty sure they are the same. What do you guys think? Looking at the difference between the two, I'm thinking that is a little more than I want to tackle.

Hi Nick
Well it has been my experience concerning project vehicles that most of the time when you pay more you'll get more
If that other trailer is avail. at $2500.00 you can expect to sink at least that much money resurecting a "hulk " and quite possibly more by the time you locate all the missing pieces.
Hope this helps
John

The buchered trailer would be worth more when rendered into parts, in my estimation.
