An Australian "Wiles Senior" kitchen trailer. Excellent cooker, ideal for display days or rallies, capable of cooking and roasting and endless stream of food for a multitude. Probably a bit big for a Backyard BBQ.

This is still available , believe this trailer was owned by late VMVC member Bill W. The seller ( Bill's son in law ) has a few other jeep bits for sale including a rusty Willys block, probably spares for Bill's jeep.

Don't know what became of Bill's GAZ 67 , the GAZ was captured in Korea by Australian troops. Bill restored the GAZ . Bill mentioned to me: he approached the Russian consulate in Melbourne and asked if they could supply a manual. A manual duly arrived but the document was on microfilm ! Bill was joking, ASIO would get involved and he was thinking they , ASIO, would open a file on him.

Mike, the GAZ-67B is in the National Museum of Military Vehicles in Dubois, WY, USA. I have no idea how it got an Australian Government Movable Cultural Heritage Export Permit.

Bill's trailer is one of the rarer models: a No.3 model built by Charles Hope, plus being an ex-PMG trailer, the top edge under that timber top should be pristine, not bent and distorted.
