UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $200.

David’s selling this parts trailer. It has the data tag.

“Bantam Trailer for sale – 1945 I received the trailer as you see it in the pictures, used the trailer around the property but do not need it any more. Tires hold air, wheel axle turns ok, no bottom (as you can see in the pictures) and no tail gate. Not road worthy, I have made no modifications, hitch is the way I received the trailer, paint is peeling. Hopefully someone can use the trailer for parts or restore? $200 obo Thanks”

UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $1000.

This trailer has been modified, but may be a good price.

Scott shared pics of his rebuilt and very useful vintage Knox trailer. There are still lots of old trailers out there waiting to be saved.

This seller indicates he has several other trailers besides these two Spen trailers.

“Spen trailers several to choose from $975 and up. Also M416 trailers 1/4 ton, 1/2 ton, and 1 ton military trailers plus a lot of M38A1 jeeps and parts. Also many M-37 parts and equipment call for a list”

Price is right on this rare trailer.

“Clean solid scarce almost untouched Barn Find 1950s M-100 Military Jeep trailer … dusty Barn find … has military chains … don’t let this scarce one get away”

UPDATE:  Thanks to Lester and Vernon for catching that this isn’t a T3-C, but rather an M-100. I was not paying close enough attention.

Jay is helping a neighbor sell this trailer.

“M100 Trailer, origin unknown. Parking brake, drop down tongue support, shocks, Pintle hitch with matching 2″x2″ receiver stinger setup, aluminum wheels with ok/old tires (no cracking though), extra steel wheels, aluminum storage boxes, some rust but a good basis for a project and tons of character”

This unusual trailer could be a handy jeeping trailer.

“I’m selling my 1944 converto airborne dump trailer.
1944 Airborne Converto Trailer Battle Ground,WA
Trailer that Includes the original combat rims.
31 x 10.50 r15 BFG mud terrain tires on 10 wide wheels. Also comes with the original reinforced combat wheels with tires. All new tail lights and wiring. The original lynette eye mount is all complete and not modified. I made a new slug of solid 2 inch round bar to fit In the factory spot with a 2 Inch ball coupler. It can be easily removed and put an original one back on It. The floor is solid with very little surface rust. The only original part is missing besides the lynette eye is the handle for the rear gate dogs. I just made one out of some steel I had around.
This trailer would not take much to have It fully restored. I’m asking $3500.00 obo””

This looks like a good price on a small Converto Trailer. Thanks to Andy for spotting it.

“Good trailer. Concerto made these trailers to tow behind jeeps in WWII. Good N.Y. registration.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

This is as nice of a Spen trailer as I’ve seen.

“Jeep Willy’s Spen Trailer. This is the trailer you would have gotten from a Jeep dealer as they did not sell Bantam trailers. It is in good shape, has some surface rust on the top side and could probably use a repaint or would be fine as is. Tires are new. Asking $2500 or best offer, comes with title”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Bill spotted this trailer on eBay.

“August 1942 Willys MBT, buyer pays & sets up shipping.
This trailer was professionally restored by a well known military auto restoration company in the USA. The trailer was found, in-tact and painted black. Upon research, I found that this trailer was never mutilated, it still proudly displays the original data tag, holds all of its original hardware down to the lead washers for the reflectors AND the original markings from WW2. The trailer has the early axle with cast center section, correct lunette, landing leg and combat wheels. Being the first month of production for the trailers, the ACM number is located next to the hand brake rather than under the spring hanger. The trailer comes loaded with all the ammo boxes, fuel can, mortar boxes and parachute pack in the picture. I will do what I can to assist over seas purchasers.
Trailer will not be released until all funds have cleared, no exceptions.”

Steve spotted these trailers. I’m not sure what vehicles were designed to tow them, but they look like they are rugged and could be handy behind a jeep or tractor.
