Look what followed me home!
I Went to Golden Colorado yesterday (home to all that Rocky Mountain Coors that folks like) and this followed me home. It is like a Mullins type but a bit larger. The box was purchased and put on a frame. I have not seen one like it, does anyone know who made it?
Now it just needs to be red with Cragars.

Nice trailer, and nice Tahoe! I'm surprised the old owner let you keep the plate. I can't offer any info on who may have made it though. It looks like it'll haul a fair amount of stuff too. More than a trunk of a 40 tudor for sure.

Not too sure about that Ryan. A 40 trunk will hold two fully loaded seabags plus.Ken Thomas

Ok, I'll give you that. But where would I put my stuff and the kid's stuff when we go on a trip? 2 sea bags might be enough to fit the wife's stuff in. Originally Posted by NTFDAY

You sure got me there. One of those trailers would be dandy and maybe not too hard to copy.Ken Thomas

Thanks for the comment. (Plate was just used to get it home, I have to send it back to the seller.) I looked at a Mullins repro near me that was priced super right but because of the bigger space and different looks elected this one. Originally Posted by 40FordDeluxe

I carry a spare, jacks, FULL load of tools, extra car liquids, cleaning supplies, and my wife has a walker. We just bought a new "Cadillac" walker and it is too tall to fit in the trunk. Bummer. But this trailer will accommodate it and if worse comes to worse - a wheelchair. Trying to get my best friend so it she feels good about taking the ride with me. We have been a lot of places together and no reason to stop now. Originally Posted by NTFDAY

There was a yellow steel model A with a matching trailer at the last couple shows I was at, I thought it was pretty neat. Like you said, a little paint and some cragars and it will blend in nice. I know how you feel, driving around without the Mrs wouldn't be much fun. I don't have any other friends

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
