Trailer Identity
I inherited this trailer from my grandfather who had a ships tank in it for water delivery.
Incidentally he had a Chevy truck with an army water tanker on the back. I believe he supplied the water to mix the cement for the Chinchilla water tower. 1.jpg I cut it up to fit a rural fire-brigade water tank for fighting fires and carting water so my family could have a bath occasionally. If I knew then! I know it had timber floor and sides with angle iron corners. 2.jpg 50 years ago I had agricultural tyres fitted, I remember they cost a gazillion bucks, or was that $80 each fitted, anyway it was a few months wages at the time. I remember well, the tyre service complaining how bad the nuts were! 3.jpg Grampa had a leaf spring and a home made pintle ring for the hitch. I have a pintle ring and would like to restore the hitch to original. 4.jpg Any information and photos of an original trailer would be appreciated Thanks, in advance for any information rod |
