Unless you have the original nomenclature plate which has the 'JT-XXX' number stamped onto it, or the remains of the original registration number painted on in white, usually across the lower rear, and/or on the lower side towards the front, then there is no way I know of to identify the actual trailer. As far as I'm aware, the production number was not stamped onto the body/frame anywhere - only on the plate.

Hi Mike

You may recall you checked out the detales found during my Aussie Jeep Trailer restoration and the conclusion was. The only details we could go by were the those on the nomenclature plate. The numbers I found on the "A" frame draw bar were not done by the military and were obviously done by previous owners for possibly registration purposes.

I read you are off to Beltring. Boy I would love to do that trip, but my XLotto numbers have not showed up yet. Have a great time in the UK.

Cheers

Tony
