Will be taking detailed pics over the w/end as this is the first single wheel recovery trailer I,ve seen. 1400/20 tyres. because of the width its recovery cost is high. It,s very complete, the drawbar is hinged by hydraulic ram, no major mods done, but what the hell towed it in OZ. certainly not the No 12 the previous owner had on the front of it.

I think it might very well have been towed by the Cab 12 (being a Ford!). These pics came off this forum:
