UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $950.
“This 1948 T3-C (S/N#18707) is as an excellent restoration candidate. There’s very little bad about the trailer. I’d say the biggest deal are some non-stock holes drilled into the body. Easily filled back in with MIG/TIG and grinder. The floor is very solid but intervention is suggested to stop the surface rust which is just beginning to pit the steel. There is no rust though anywhere on this trailer. Correct rims, original tires hold air. Springs in perfect shape. Top rails are straight as an arrow. Fenders are in fantastic shape. Stake pockets are not bent. Nice tail gate. No bondo anywhere. The data plate is there but not easy to read.
I have all of the internals for the fulton coupler which come with it, however I do not have the correct 8 sided knob (I have a 4 sided knob which will get the job done). The trailer and tailgate chains are not original but easily procured. The rear lights (operable) and reflectors are not original (yet functional) and will take some time and searching for the correct parts….but that’s half the fun!
For a minimal investment in time, this T3-C will make a fun and functional restoration project. If you plan to use this trailer for hauling boulders, please look elsewhere. It’s very obvious to me that the past two owners treated this piece of equipment with care and respect. The P/O used it in the 70’s and 80’s for family camping. Price is $950.00 and I’m selling because I need garage space for a project of higher priority. It would be a shame to store this outdoors. No trades (I have enough projects).”
This trailer is SOLD, thanks, Pete
Congrats Pete. I’ve updated the post.
