Ford trailers in Australia

[Ian Fawbert]

Hello hanno,

Thanks for the reply.
With out having actually seen one of the ford 1/4 ton trailers i dont know what they look like. From what i can find so far, there were several main manufacturers of jeep trailers for australia, both form here and abroad.
The manufacturers that i picked up were:
Willys
Bantam
Peter Brothers,
GMH,
International,
Ford,
Morris,
Hopes,
individual local patterns
and also others which i might have skipped over

I have seen examples of the willys MBT, Bantam T3 and the GMH, but not of the others, as these were in the greatest numbers in the books. Things i dont know 100% are if trailers were made and rebadged, but i don think so as the books were maintained with info from the various vehicle depots and so info was read straight off data plates, counting out that any other manufacturers trailers could have been skipped over as a GMH for example.

The one i think in the picture is a GMH trailer, probably 3 or 3a model, but unsure.

Hopefully somone would be able to give me some help with the other trailers, but i think ill have to do a fare bit of digging around.

Thanks again hanno,

Ian.
