Diego’s father bought this jeep (1958 CJ-5) and trailer in Argentina in the late-1950s/early-1960s. The trailer lacks data plates and Diego has no idea who manufactured it. I don’t recognize it. Does anyone else?

Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

Looks like a Ben-hur mfg trailer with those fenders.
I was gonna say looks like a converto design
Thank you Dave.I notice that it has the similar differential hub like a GPW / MB jeep,perhaps its a Ben hur trailer.
Diego, I did notice the hubs, but the body of the trailer is much deeper than other trailers I’ve seen. I just don’t know what it is???
Well David I Found it,you have in the Willys Link a Couse Navy trailer that is not like.. But it has the same hub and fenders and it is deeper.
I know that when my father bought the jeep and the trailer they were destined for the Argentine navy and due to delayed delivery of jeeps they gave it to him.
What do you thank about this ?

Diego, That closer, but not quite the same. I agree that with the fenders, hubs, and fenders, it’s as close as we’ve seen. Maybe yours is a later model? I tried to find other Spares, but only found this one: https://car-from-uk.com/sale.php?id=107764
Is that Couse trailer on Ebay an old ad?
Hi Tom,
Yes, that’s an old ad. I’ve marked it sold. Thanks!
