Seems in pretty good shape.

“This is a WWII Jeep Trailer that was not used during the war and was sold after the war to SPEN CO. for civilian use. Hitch was converted to ball type at that time by the Spen Co. Rare trailer, very straight. Has a couple small cancer spots shown in pics in front wall. All the rest is surface rust. Has a Title. Just needs paint and the correct lights for a collectors trailer. Has the original (extremely hard to find) Spen hubcaps……”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.

The back has been cut, but this seems in good shape otherwise. It has the data plate, too.

“1945 military bantam jeep trailer. I wanted to build an off road camper that could haul my 4wheeler and roof top tent but I need a bigger trailer willing to trade for trailer or cash”

UPDATE **SOLD** Was $750.

Needs some bed work at the very least.

“I got a 1943 Jeep military trailer need to be restored but in good running condition registered and California title in hand asking 750”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Bill spotted this trailer with a starting price of $500. It’s located just northwest of Boise.

“This Jeep trailer is a civilian Bantam model of the M100 military trailer. The color is Korean War 24087. It has new 700×16 tires; also a new floor plate. It has a 24 volt tail light and connector plug to a military Jeep. There is no rust. This trailer is located in Southwest Idaho.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $550.

(12/18/2020) Looks like a good price on a trailer.

“1940’s Spen Trailer in Good Condition. Scarce Spen trailer with even scarcer Spen hubcaps. Appears to have its original floor along with the hard to find original Spen hubcaps, 16″ rims, landing leg, and a very nice tailgate. It needs some panel and frame patches or use as is. Could be restored or use as is with the patina look. Great to pull behind a Willys CJ2A, CJ3A, Wagon or other Jeep. $950 No title. Pick up in Western NC.”

“1945 Airborne WWII Converto Dump Trailer
We were in gold country, in central California, hunting for a few things to bring home to the shop when we found this lovely Converto trailer, which is complete down to the last bit, and original. It even has both of the original BF Goodrich military issue tires, which are extremely rare.

The data plates are intact and clear, and the inside of the tub is very straight and clean- No rust or crud piled up- it is ready for sanding and paint-

There are no cuts, dents, or otherwise areas of concern in the tub, gate, and frame. This is a Paint-and-go item. We cleaned out the cement from the tub. If this listing expires without a sale, we may paint it, but the price will be $2500 then.

This is perfect for anyone with a WWII Jeep, wanting to really stand out from the crowd.”

I’m amazed at the unrestored condition of this trailer.

Bill spotted this Converto Airborne Trailer being sold out of Georgia. Starting bid is $850.

“Converto ½ Ton Airborne Dump Trailer with original data plates. The trailer is in good condition for its age with some rust on the back tailgate, see pictures. Tires are dry rotted and will need to be replaced. Trailer rolls free. Not sure if the taillights work as I have never tried to hook them up. The previous owner put a piece of sheet metal on the floor, unknown why, but it is rust free underneath. The hitch has been changed over to a regular ball type. I do not have the original military hitch that was on the trailer. Included with the trailer is manual, new data plate, and hard to find items, the dump handle and lubrication pouch that mounts on the front. Trailer does not have a title but will come with a Georgia Bill of Sale”

I’m not sure if this has a data plate that pinpoints the date as 1943 or if that’s just a guess. I suspect Acme only manufactured the tongue?

“Original 1940s ACME built Willys Jeep trailer. It has been sitting for some time and definitely needs some TLC, nothing a little sheet metal, a grinder and a welder can’t handle. Perfect winter project to get your Willilys ready for car show season”
