Anyone able to identify when this trailer came from? Looking at purchasing but the guy has no clue on the value.

That is a Bantam T3-C.  The "C" stands for civilian.  It is a 1/4 ton trailer.  Because of the shape is in, I would recommend offering him $200 - $400.  It's really up to you and the seller.  It is missing the tailgate, which is needed, of course.

Can't tell from the picture but how is the front end?  The A-Frame and all that.  I can only see a little piece of the landing leg, so I'm sure it has that.

You can tell is a Bantam T3-C because of the side pockets on the inside of the tub and the three hooks on the side of the side panels.  Cool find.  Good luck with the sale Tongue

I was able to purchase this trailer from my buddy. He let me buy it for less than others were offering so I am very thankful to have it. Looks pretty solid except for the floor. Any sources for new floors for these or is it something I will need to make?

Where in MI are you located?

Mine is in storage right now, but I might be able to get over there sometime soon.

You can get replacement floors from a number of Jeep part vendors. Ron F at G503 Jeep parts has them they run around 300.00 There are several others but Ron is great to work with. Good Luck Mike
