“This 1945 Bantam Jeep Trailer, model T100, has been restored to its original design, which includes the pintle hook tongue. It has the older style military tires on it, which are in okay condition. I’ve been in the process of restoring it and therefore have removed the paint to the bare metal. It was my intention to paint it od green. Well, my garage is full, and the trailer is going to have to go. I have already purchased primer for the trailer, but have not put it on.”

“Up for sale is my M416 military trailer that has been modified into a off-road camping/adventure trailer. This started off as a ¼ ton M416 surplus trailer. It was completely stripped down and sandblasted. The Axle was replaced with a 3500 lb unit with 6 lug bolt pattern for Toyota and Chevrolet. The frame was extended in the front for a cooler rack, and two military style gas can mounts ( gas cans will not be included). Trailer still maintains the military pintle hitch. Body had the floor cut out and replaced with heavier steel. A custom lid was made which opens using a modified tailgate latch and heavy duty lift struts. On top of the trailer sits a large Serengeti Rooftop tent.(http://campinglab.com/serengeti01.html)

WW2 Couse Navy Trailer Gustine, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: trailer This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

I don’t know much about these trailers.

” This is a US Navy Military World War 2 Trailer built by Couse Labs for the US Navy. Its hard to read the date plate. It says Spares Trailer, Type CAHT-10284, Department of Ships. Serial number 211 I think. There is a picture of the date plate. We have only seen one restored online, its the only other one we were able to find. I believe its got one “combat rim” on it and one M38A1.Will help load her onto a truck if needed. There is another Combat Rim that will go with her (pictured). The last picture is of a Couse Labs built US Navy Trailer restored.”
