The other day I picked up a trailer that had been made from a mini van. It has a bit of rust here and there, and the front 'wall' is a bit rough.

Was wondering if anyone else out there has one, and what was used to fabricate the front wall?

Cheers
Matt

Watto bought his trailer like that.

A couple of guys in the club have built them. There was one on eBay about a month ago. The seller had a $1200 starting price, which I thought was a bit much!!

Yeh, I paid $100 for mine, and even with the work I gotta do, it's way under $1200!

I know of two van shells that would be ideal to turn into trailers, the guy wants $100 each for them. But he's in Killarney QLD, so that makes it hard for most of you guys.

The weight kinda depends who/how it was built!
