Default Ben Hur trailer

Hi Mike,

It sure was! The Ben Hur type trailer was meant to be towed behind larger GMC's and Dodge WC's from what I read. I wonder if any were left behind in Australia after WW2?

You couldn't get away with it today, and even then, I think Dad took a big chance towing it. Having said that, 6 vacations to the seashore 140 miles from home with no incident someone up there must have been looking after us.

Dad had the optional Jeep rear seat that clipped into the rear bed of the Jeep too. Thats where my brother and I sat. Photo from Life magazine archives.

Cheers
