[QUOTE="Androsyn, post: 405624, member: 20317"] Picked up a nice trailer on craigslist for the unbeatable price of free. The story behind it is pretty cool too. This trailer is a Dilly and the born on date was sometime in 1976. I received it from a guy who recently lost his father around Christmas time. Unfortunately we have this in common. The trailer used to belong to his Dad and he had picked it up hoping to do something with it but as we all know happy wife/happy life; she said it needed to go along with a few other treasures from his man cave. The trailer wasn't in bad shape at all but hearing the story behind it made me want to completely overhaul it and make sure it's around for another 40 years! I assured him that I would take good care of it and that it would be used for a boat and not chopped up into a utility trailer. Here's some pictures: I purchased new bearings, and seals today. I am planning on cleaning up a few rough edges and applying the same color(s) as the Jon in time. [/QUOTE]
