If you wanted to sell it I don't think you would have any trouble.  That thing is in really nice shape!

Aaron:

This is how my former trailer looked like after I had it rhino lined.  It was a good idea, AT FIRST, but I was not happy after I had it done, SO I sold it! and got another one.  NOT doing that crap ever again, lol.  Thumbs Up  This is the trailer after it was restored and rhino lined...

Try some POR 15, it's just as strong and can be painted over.

I bought a flat  rubber bed mat for a pickup and cut it to fit the floor of the bantam.

Dave:

Where did you get your rubber bed mat from?  I'm seeking to do the same for my Bantam.  Let me know.

Auto parts store - pickup accessory stores...many places have them. 

3/8 inch thick rubber - cut it with a carpet knife.  You can pull it out easily for cleaning.  ProTecta is one brand.  Dee Zee - Amazon has them - free shipping

From what I can tell looking at period ads, the tires that came on it were a "garden variety" passenger car bias ply tire. The ones on yours looks a bit too aggressive (I like the look, just don't think they're original type) http://bantamt3c.com/index.htm

I'd suggest NOT doing the Rhino thing as someday down the road if you wanted to restore it
further you'd not be able to get that stuff off... and then you'd be real Cry
 
A thought might be to cut some sort of small pickup liner down so that you could use it and
then it could be easily removed when not needed/wanted.
 
Nice trailer and a Super Steal...err I mean Buy!
 
congrats!!!
