Being a cheap bastard (yeah I know, most people did not know I was cheap, just a bastard .....
), we found this trailer for free on Gumtree. Just a few minor mods & it was on the road. Hauls some weight too, very happy with it.
Best of all, no engineering or rego costs .......

Took a few minutes. He was not used to the comfort, but soon got the hang of it. Spent his youth in the back of utes & box trailers around the property ......

"That is a lovely post Ozbilt. Thank you for sharing such wonderment on this site of awesomeness. Even if you could post the photos in a better format, it doesn't matter as you are such a wonderful person."
Thank you for the correction Hybrid
