Getting ready to start restoration on a early 1946 BT3-C. I have researched that the trailers came in red or green. Does anyone know the correct color codes,...
... Try "Pasture Green," one of the colors Willys used for civilian jeeps in 1946. Should be close if not exact. ... The trailers were painted all one color,...
Also check out my photos in our Yahoo photo section under New Bantam I used the smooth forest green from Durabak. It is very close to the color found inside...
My BT3C still has some of the original paint. Forest Green is about the best description of it. Also, I have an NOS original tail light lens and bezel assembly...

I compared the original red on by Bantam T3-C to the paint chips at www.autocolorlibrary.com and think that it is quite close to the "Harvard Red" used by...
I uploaded some photos of a trailer at an auction (Trailer at Auction album). It appears to be a military Bantam type modified for some kind of municipal use,...
Hey coastie, the frame sure looks like a Bantam, but the box doesn't. At first I thought it was just cut down about 6-8'', but then I noticed there are no...
The trailer has a WWII military 1/4 ton trailer frame, lunette casting, etc. There is no way to tell from the photos whether it is Willys or Bantam. However,...
Looks like an M100 modified by the Air Force to carry a set of tool fixtures or jack sets. The yellow flightline painted interior is what makes me think USAF....
Bob, I have compared that lunette to my M100 photos and that lunette looks to me to match the M100 photos to a T. I was looking at the WWII lunettes and their...
Wes, I looked at the photos again, and you are absolutely correct that the lunette matches the M100. (The screen size and resolution of the laptop I was using...
Well, The bid for that trailer appears to be heading beyond what I would be willing to pay for it for my application. From the photos it sure appears that the...

I bought what I though was a Bantam TC-3 trailer. It turns out it is a Spen Model S (sorry no hubcaps). The coupler has been replaced, the landing leg is...
I was told this is a Bantam but I dought it? I posted pictures of it in the photos section in a new album called "What am I?" If someone knows what it is...
... Frankly, I know what it isn't but not what it is. It is definitely NOT a Bantam (military or civilian), nor is it a Willys MBT, M100 or M416. The tailgate...
