Bantam / Jeep / Willys 1/4 ton trailer
$450 Stratford, CT
Maybe someone can narrow this one down, it does have some HD hubs on there. Pintle and drop leg look legit, has some brake parts not the handle. Fender brackets look rounded.
INFORMATION FROM SELLER:
1945 1/4 ton willys / bantam. Trailer everything on it looks original ..except the tires of course , it is missing the tailgate and lights and fenders ..great project 450.00 or bo …I just towed it 4 miles so its towable..The bed has small rust holes in spots but its actually pretty sturdy i stood in it..
Looks like my WW2 Bantam ‘T3’ that the rear panel was cut out of to make a tailgate…
So many of these were made from leftover military parts. The tub looks military with have 4 tie downs on the side where a TC3 has only 3. No good pics of the rear, but I see braces near the back which were added to the TC3s because of the weak spot near the tailgate. Military versions had no tailgate and I can’t tell from these pics if it has been cut or the tailgate is just missing. Plenty of aftermarket parts for a rebuild.
This was free on the side of the road in Bridgeport a few weeks ago but couldn’t get down there to grab it
