new trailer

We recently bought a decommissioned US military trailer on e-bay. We've been wanting a trailer with excellent off-roading capabilities that can be towed behind the Land Rovers. We also considered purchasing a popup camper, but most that we looked at could not handle the rough roads of our property in Canada. This trailer seemed to fit our needs. Eventually it will also house a removable tent camper conversion.





This is the "before" photo showing the trailer as we received it. In the photo below, you can see that Brad painted it to match the 109 with the appropriate British military stenciling and stickers. The 101 will also eventually be painted the same color. An American military trailer towed behind British military vehicles... well, at least we're allies, right?














We will eventually need to replace the trailer's tires and to hunt down a spare as well...













Obviously the 109 (pictured above) is fully operational. As far as the status of the rest of the antique vehicles...





Brad is waiting on a fuel filler hose and some miscellaneous parts for the 101 from the UK. In the meantime, he has begun to remove the body in preparation for some serious cleaning, painting and Wax-oyling, among other tasks.

And, yes, the exhaust system is on the list of items to be replaced. This blowout of the muffler was very interesting to see...

The MG is waiting on some parts from Moss Motors...

And the back of the 88 is serving as an impromptu tool bench right now. The 88 is fully operational, but it has taken a backseat right now to other projects.
