Enclosed trailers

[Li'l Work Truck]

From now on, I'm calling it RickOleum.

It has lots of names on the farm… Heather’s makeup (she always ended up more on her than any project), Shelby camo (see Heather ), the “good” paint… I use it for most truck/trailer projects, boats, kitchen trim, security doors, above ground pool frame (didn’t help).

Ok found another possibility...

This one obviously at minimum needs roof patching in the back. I talked to the kid on the phone last night he said its solid structurally and pulls good but has no lights, Hes a mechanic/welder and said he bought it to turn into a mobile unit but it wasnt big enough. He said its 16ft inside (big enough for me) and hes eager to get rid of it so i could probably get it for 7-800bucks (hes asking 1000).

Its about an hour away, comments?

Nice price. I would be turned off by the rust. Make sure you check frame underneath where it appears to be laying on the ground.

The roof is a bit of a turnoff...but if i can get it cheap enough.

Yeah im a bit concerned about the frame as well but thsts usually first thing i check on this stuff

Blank canvas, endless potential, but I agree be very careful about the rust

I’d wave five $100 bills under his nose

What i kinda like about this one is its already basically totally enclosed.

It has some funky cancer things going on with the roof, until recently it had wet debris rotting on the wooden floor (can see it pushed out in one picture) lights/brakes don't work, tires are probably shot, its been sitting so long the hitch is sunk into the ground and we all know nobody looks at the wheel bearings on a small bumper pull livestock trailer unless they can find the wheel assembly after it comes off.

Sounds like it will make a fine addition to the @rusty ol ranger fleet.

You didn’t mention the $50 for gas. You could’ve sent me $25 and I’d tell you it wasn’t worth pulling out of the ground!

I'd tell him that for $24.50. Plus, I'll throw in some free insults.

Im gonna give it a fair shot but i got a feeling im gonna pass on it.
