One of you master tear builders might be interested in this trailer. No, I'm not the one selling it. Was just surfing eBay.

Problem with these is the frame is usally rusted. Cheap paint, left outside on damp areas, does them in.... I wouldn't touch it when you can get a decent online trailer pretty cheap.

Well you are right of course,,,and ya got to use a wee bit of common sence,,,if its rusted and badley pitted leave it alone,,if its 90% good ,repair it and go ahead with it,,we dont salt down here like yall do up north so metal seems to last a bit longer,,bottom line ,, be safe with it,,if its risky leave it alone

Disappointingly, the advert doesn't say if this unit contains a green sink....

:crazy:

I think Chip can still help out there... Chip, did you ever take a picture of that pea green sink? or would that destroy the illusion that we all have of your pea green rv sink?
