Seems to be a Sears trailer..at a thrift store in Orange, Va. They are asking $150 and it's beyond my skill level. Very rusted. If any one is interested I can get more pictures.

Looks like a Farmall Cub trailer.

Ok. Thanks. I'll have to look that up. I'm thinking-again- about buying it!

Looks like a David Bradley. I think the Farmal trailer had a slightly different tongue allowing for a pivot to dump the trailer.

If you decide to get this trailer,  let me know if there is anything I can do to help . .   (with this or Scabby).  :-)

Did you get it, Rick?    I work in Orange and took a lunchtime jaunt to check out DJ's thrift store,  the one in "Y" of road off RT 20 . .   I did not see a trailer there anywhere.    Either someone got it,  or I was looking at wrong thrift store.  :-)
I was thinking of checking out how much work would be involved.

I didnt get it. And I haven't been back to look again. It's at DJS other store about 2 blocks away- don't remember street name- going toward 7-11.

I did not know that DJ's had a 2nd location.  :-)
 
After work today, I went by ,   . . . the trailer is still there.   It is really in rough shape.   The frame is shot. :-(    I wish now I would have taken some close-up photos.   I can do that if you would like (not that far out of my way home).   If anyone plans to haul weight in this trailer,  it will require some serious structural repair. 
 
Even worse than my "work" trailer.
 
 
My trailer needed some replacement sections welded in.   The trailer at DJ's would most likely need to have the entire side rails cut out and replaced,  to be structurally sound.
 
Rick,  this one would require a LOT of work.    Scabby looks like new,  compared to it. LOL

Thanks, Ron
I thought it was beyond me, and this seals it.
