I am willing to sell all of them to one buyer for $160. It makes them pretty cheap.
They are made of plastic canvas type material. I threw away 3-4 doors that were torn...

I still need to finish electricals. The trailer tows well. It has a 5,000 lbs GVWR rating. Details and photos (really a lot of them) are on the page above.
I wanted to get a trailer...
