Hi all,
 
A fireman friend I've known since elementary school called from Texas to make me jealous with his newest acquisition, T3-C #24924, purchased for the princely sum of $200 out of somebody's back yard.  Appears to be all original, save for the replacement tires, tail light, and license plate bracket.  I'd been looking for a civilian Bantam for a while myself.  My buddy works his trailers and subsequently bought an M-101 more in-line with his needs.  Long story short, I subsidized the purchase of the M-101 and the civilian trailer is now mine.  There's no rust through and the bottom is in really nice shape.

Steve,
Great looking trailer!  Can you post some more photos of the trailer?  Hitch, tailgate, etc.   What kind of reflectors are on it?  Round or oval bezels?  Manufacturer stamp in bezel?

Thanks, guys.  I won't be able to pick-up the trailer 'til later in the year, but here are a few more photos.  My buddy swapped out the hitch for a 2" ball (not shown), but I made sure he kept the original hitch and hardware and didn't cut / drill anything in the process (other than the new hitch).  Neither of the lights are factory, but I think everything else is, or will be once I swap the original Fulton back on.  The bottom's bowed, but there's no serious rust.  I can't wait.

  What is happening to Santa Claus lately  delivering all the trailers and Jeep parts and early at that.  He is delivering a Bantam S/N 3782 to me in October along with some other Jeep accessories. I hope he is just thinning out his surplus and not going modern on us. We will know if we start seeing reindeer on Ebay.
