Hi Claude,

Do you have any photos of this frame? Does it have the Scotty coiled spring axle? What are the outside dimentions of the floor area minus the tongue?

Thanks,

Deserthawk

It has leaf springs.

It is 14 feet long, with flanges placed to accept a 4x10 plywood floor without any modification.

It is 4'8" inside wheel to inside wheel.

Claude,

What is the length from the back of the trailer to the axle? Also do you have the measurement from hubface to hubface or more or less?

Yep, that's a Scotsman frame. I don't remember what the hub to hub dim was but the main side frames is 4 feet outside to outside. That's the same frame I used to build mine and I added 9" to the axle for a 5 wide.

P.S. I don't know why I'm telling you this. I was going after that frame for my sister's tear that I'm building. Then I noticed that you were on it. Good luck. Let me know if you decide to back out. ;)

I sure hope Claude's responce to any questions asked on ebay is better than what was on this board. I asked him one question and also told him I may be interested in it. And I'm still waiting for a reply. I guess he didn't want to sale it to me. :thinking:

Gage: I did not get your question - Did not see it. Sorry for the delay.

Yes - I will sell this frame to you. I have seen your Tear and you do good work.

Gage,

Thanks, as long as it doesn't get unreasonably stiff bidding, I am 98% sold on this frame.

As I sit here, I am getting emotional.

This Frame is from a trailer that I bought a very long time ago. There are many memories connected to this Frame, or more precisely to the Trailer that was built upon it.

BTW: As I look at other Frames available, this frame is far superior to all of the others available. But, I may be biased.

Gage,

There is still 2 hours left in this auction. I've decided that after swaping out axles, sandblasting, custom welding and recoating, I can only afford to go $150 on this frame. If you want it go for it. I am backing off.
