Seems in pretty good shape.

“This is a WWII Jeep Trailer that was not used during the war and was sold after the war to SPEN CO. for civilian use. Hitch was converted to ball type at that time by the Spen Co. Rare trailer, very straight. Has a couple small cancer spots shown in pics in front wall. All the rest is surface rust. Has a Title. Just needs paint and the correct lights for a collectors trailer. Has the original (extremely hard to find) Spen hubcaps……”
Nice find, not sure about the story of it being military, or the hitch conversion. This is clearly a civilian SPEN trailer. It’s very nice too.
Bob, I was wondering about that story, too.
Its not titled in his name, CA title, it hasn’t been on the road since 95′
Thanks for the additional info Robby!
.
Military trailers had no tailgate so they could float
I own a near identical Spen Model S trailer. Am hunting hi n low for a pair of Spen hubs to fit 5×5.5 inch Willys CJ wheels. Would buy a whole axle if necessary. Thanks!
