1954 M-38A1 2WD Clayton, NC $4900
Not a bad price given the amount of work that’s been done. Still, it’s only a 2WD vehicle. It does have a good looking Kelly hardtop.

1946/7 T3-C Bantam Trailer Portland, OR **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1850.
Looks in decent shape and includes extra rims/tires.
“$1,850 – Or Best Offer
For a 75-year-old trailer, this one is in pretty excellent shape. This is either a 1946 or 1947 Bantam T3-C 1/4 ton trailer. I’ve owned it for a couple of years now, with the intention to turn it into a overland like trailer.
I have an extra set of rims with military style tires, but all these tires need to be replaced, the rubber is pretty old on these. All the rims are in inner tube style rim as well. The bolt pattern is 5×5.5″ with a hub opening of a hair over 4.75.”
