the thing is the MBT, the M100 are very sought after from an historical point of view. There is some value there. The M416 is a Vietnam era trailer that is not as coveted. It is a well built trailer but lacks convenience without a tailgate. If you use the repop parts and make it look like it belongs there you will still have a good looking trailer and one with a practical tailgate. I think the M416 is more sought after for its ruggedness and its use behind a modern day jeep or truck for outback adventures than for its historical value. Just do a Google search and see how these trailers are all outfitted. You’re already 1/2 of the way there..

Not to take over your thread but I just found this image on the server at work in the historical files...thought you would get a kick out of this circa Fall 1981 picture this would be a year after I joined the USAF. This Morton Building was know as the "Jeep Shed" I still have the sign at home removed before they repainted the building and put on a new roof some 30 years later.

That is awesome. My first job in the Air Force was in vehicle ops, retrained first chance I got. We didn't have any Jeeps in our fleet. Did enjoy driving HMMV's and Dueces though. I didn't join until the end of '87.
