Took it camping on a couple of quick local trips. First to Davy Crockett National Forest with my son and then headed North to Oklahoma Choctaw Nation. Too short a trip but overall a nice time.

That is a Sears Bradley farm trailer from the 40s or 50s. I have one too. So simple and fun to modify.Look at the rigging for the springs, some parts will be reused.
Not the front axle converted for trailer use or the wood frame

ANY ONE ID THIS?
Where did you source you "tarp? TIAWrapped up by COVID trailer upgrades with this new Wavian gas can. Added tire carrier rack, with axe and shovel mount, gas can holder, a light, and power. All that was left was the gas can. Finally was available online after months of COVID delay so I jumped on it. Pulling this thing with my thirsty 60 series, it will be nice to know I have extra fuel in tow. Done with the trailer (for now ).

Definitely appreciate the info. I may give them a call even though my trailer is a 1968 M101A1 and I have seriously modded the bows etc.I had it custom made from an outfit called OD Cloth. They make reproduction cloth tarps for WWII army vehicles. I had it done in vinyl instead of canvas as would be proper for the period. This is a husband and wife outfit I believe and everything is custom made. Its by far one of the highest quality bits of the trailer and fits perfectly with the tarp bows I made for the trailer. Came with tarp ropes. Can't say enough good things about the tarp. Group was great to work with. Their website is really dated though. Something out of 1995 so its a little confusing to purchase off their website. I think I had to call them to get this done over the phone as they didn't have a specific Bantam T3-C tarp listed. I could be remembering that wrong. I am pretty sure they can make you whatever you need but they specialize in WWII tarps for various military vehicles. If you have a different type of trailer not of this era then this might not be for you. Here is a link to their site:
Contact Info I have for them:
