A couple of years ago, I put a bid in on 11 M105 trailers, just hoping to get one for my collection. My bid was around $110 on each one....I won 10 of the 11!!!..not good. I ended up keeping the best one and later sold the other 9 to a dealer for what I paid for them. Good news is he let me strip any thing off them I wanted, bad news was, because he was going to cut them up. He could sell the axle and wheels for more money that the whole trailer.
When Garbee stops by next week end, I will get him to post some photos of the one I kept. It has very good tires, and looks great......as a chicken coop. It now is the secure home for my Bantam chickens.
One of the few, Frank USMC

she’s gonna KMA about the other one! Oh well, with a few tarps, the trailers will make a nice 1 room apartment!
AND, you can park it anywhere.......even at work!

I was thinking about bidding on one of them trailers but let it slide. Guess I should have. My luck I would have been bidding against our own "Team Fontana" that scored some. Nice work guys. I guess I'll see them at our So Cal roundup in a couple of months.

Kenny was the guy that out bid you the imfanous 8500 last four? He outbid me on every M818 in Mechanicsburg a year ago and almost took my M127 at Lakehurst he bought every other one there in that sale.
