No. They have all been in a friends backyard for 15+ years. I bought one similar to these 6 years ago. I was able to easily register it as a home built trailer. Please check the laws in your state.

3 M416 Trailers for sale. $950 each OBO. All have some rust and need tires, one has tailgate mod, two have tongue mod. I also have some M416 parts like tongue frame rails, lunette castings, lunettes, wheels for spares, etc. If you want to do a restoration and not mod the tongue, I should have...

Billiebob, Please share details about your tires. Thanks

Could you share some internal dimensions? Looks like an amazing start to a cool build. You hit the easy button!

Very well done!

I am watching that auction, but it’s $60.00 each plus 48.42 shipping. $120 for two with free shipping sounds great! Was that a different older auction? Thanks very much.

Need one or two M416 fenders. They don’t have to be great or even good. OK condition works for me. Anyone have any fenders to spare? I have a spare wheel, a lunette casting and a drop foot if anyone prefers to trade. Thanks
