I scored what I think was a hell of a deal. 1968 M101A1. Tarp is in excellent shape plus I got a spare with the trailer. All in all its in good shape. couple of pic's for you.

 

[TRFCSUX]

big enough

You might be able to sleep inside that thing. Looks solid.

 

[Devilmans Hand]

oh thats sweet.
what are your plans for it? When does it get the dual ma-deuce mount?

 

[Land Shark]

There is the billion dollar question. Exactly how will we use it? First thoughts are set it for just camping and leave it loaded with camping stuff. Second is using it as a utility, dump, and camping trailer. I am not crazy about the height so i am thinking to either cut that down or do away with the tarp all together. I have already started changing out the lights from 24 to 12 volt and will finish that tomorrow.

 

[Land Shark]

Yes very large and beefy!

 

[SAS]

Whoa! yeah, that is a 5/4-ton trailer, right? There was a guy from Addicted Offroad who had one at the swap meet in June. That's big trailer!

Sleep in it? Heck yeah, you can build the Taj Mahal out of that thing! I see it now, canopy off the back and off one side, fold down trays for dual-burner stove, sink, and prep-table.

Looks awesome.

 

[Land Shark]

Yes very stout. Sleep in it, haul with it, kitchen/camping set up, etc the options are limitless. Thinking about taking it up to fall crawl to start to get to know her. If I have time maybe I can mount my shower set up to her.

 

[hakalugi]

looks nice! any interior shots yet?

 

[Land Shark]

Planning some soon. I have been thinking about how I want to set this thing up. First thing I want to do is make the tarp height adjustable. Then I need to mount my water tank and a rack holder for my fuel cans. Then I am thinking about some type of sleeping platform.

 

[Land Shark]

I don't like the height as it is. So making it adjustable I can when driving the trailer bring it down low and yet keep everything dry. Then when at camp I can raise it back up for sleeping clearance.

 

[Skrewball]
