The item sold for $510.
That is a significant amount of money for what remains a 1945 Ford trailer, no taillights, missing handbrake assy, floor requires replacing (with beaded original), plus 2 bar tread tyres (not including spare).. 2 litres of paint, a sandblast, etch prime, prime, topcoat, straightening, hood bows, canvas, stop light, mil electric connector, towing ring hitch, registration (in NSW) stamp duty... Mike, I appreciate your photos on Jeepdraw,(http://www.jeepdraw.com) as the enabled me to decide that I could spend my hard earned $510!!! on another CMP.... Proportionately I think the price is too high, and a realistic price would be more like $300. bearing in mind I bought a registered 2 tonne trailer for $40 more than this price!! and I can tow a jeep on it. Obviously someone is prepared to pay that much ![]() ![]() I would upload the photos as they are worthy of posting, but I am on my ancient computer and its a no go.. One wonders if it would fetch such a sterling price. Anyone manage to buy it???

Ian, As it is an Australian Type 4 trailer, they did not have lights or a hand brake or safety chains and they came new with those cross ply tyres.
It has the leg and looks like an original floor bung hanging from its chain. Original solid rims(spare looks CJ), Brass tag not missing. It is just missing the tow eye. Looks fairly straight in the photo's. I don't think it is too over priced. How many in this condition are for sale today? Just my 2 cents. Jeff

Thanks Jeff,
I didn't know that.. I am just going from the Jeepdraw website..and Mike Kelly's info.. I am glad someone knows what is required. I had to add a freight factor (for me is a few hundred), and I still think it is overpriced. (trouble is I have two trailers already... that's a lot of money sitting in the rain, year in year out..) I expect that there are a few dozen jeep trailers around.. certainly there are a few limbers... If the MLU thread readers want to PM me about a limber, I am keen to know. Ian
