Where to buy M101 on East Coast?

I had a link to a place in North Carolina that sold new Canadian M101 trailers, but I can't seem to locate it. Does anyone know where I can buy one of those, preferably as close to Atlanta as possible?

TIA!

PM Koffer on this forum and ask if he knows anyone. I believe his cache is empty now, but he lives in NJ and used to know the scoop on these things. I bought mine from him...

The place in NC is called White Owl surplus located in Kinston. They are sold out, my budy bought the last one he had. The owner wasn't advertising it on line because it was "in rough shape" which was no joke. I have never seen a CDN2 M101 this bad. This poor trailer was pretty much covered in bad scale rust, fenders were beat up, bent A frame and was missing the lunette to boot! My budy bought it from him for a fair price but, has quite a job on his hands. We have been taking photos along "the road to recovery" and he intends to do a write when its fininshed.

Is it just me, or have the M101 CDNs become a lot harder to find lately?

I bought a 101 on ebay from Surplus Canada just north of malone ,Ny. I just picked it up today. Todd said that he has been getting $800 and up. He had 2 on his lot and can get more. He said that they only made about 1400 and the price is rising as they get sold . mine is #820.

There is a fellow in Earlysville, VA, about 5 miles north of Charlottesville, VA, who had several others last summer after I bought mine from him. He may still have some left. His email is Tom@EandTFitz.com.

Try Sam Werner in Tracy City, TN, about 35 miles NW of Chattanooga. Last time I was there, he had a boatload of mil-trailers, all were pretty rusty though.

See pic for examples.

Good luck.

I didn't even think about Craigslist... I've looked at cruisers there but never thought about looking for trailers.

Thanks!
