I picked up my "new" trailer this weekend. Its actually in really good shape and it says that it was rust proofed in 86. There is not a lot of rust on it,...
Hey Folks - A couple of moderator-ish notes. First - somewhere over the weekend we bumped over 300 members for the first time. Thanks, everyone for keep this...
The only place I'm familiar with that may have spring insulators would be Benz Spring in Seattle, Wa. They will custom manufacture nearly any leaf spring you...
Many years ago, when I was restoring for others, we would spray the springs with 'Hi-Tack' adhesive and then apply the widest Teflon tape available. Done...

Christopher, Thanks for the link and info. I believe you may be right. I think it was a show in the Tiger tank and te shot was from the rear and fleeting. I'll...
Howdy, I think you will find a picture of the tail light bracket by going to the link mentioned in the number 96 message in the group M416 postings. It is on...
I recently purchased a 1951 CJ3A and this weekend went looking in "older" neighborhoods for parts and donor vehicles. Sadly I didn't find any but did spot a...
WITHOUT A DOUBT BUY IT! I'm biased I love trailers, have 3. ... From: <Snook1969@...> To: <BantamTrailer@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003...
Huh...you guys really think $500 is a good deal? Especially without seeing pics? Struck me as an average deal, and have a line on a cheaper one for Snook. Best...
I just had someone tell me that the older bantam light brackets are incompatible with the more recent M416 light brackets. And I quote, "Gordon, I'm sorry,...
Depends on location. If you were in Arizona, I'd say $500 for one in that condition would be a steal. If you were in Pennsylvannia or South Carolina or some...
Location does account for alot. If you were here in western Iowa, you could probably pick one up for much less and it would be worth practically nothing as...

I have a chance to buy a Bantam trailer and want to find out more about it than what the owner knows about it. He sent pictures and it has a tail gate and a...
A TC-3 should be a civilian Bantam. If it has three tie downs on the side and a tailgate, production should not have begun until 1946. Since the serial...

But of course!! It is not like it is less road worthy than the current trailer crap that is licensed. I will be calling to verify pickup details. Maybe I...
