This is a very unique custom built trailer. It is made from two 1956 Murcurys. They were cut off at the rear window, backed up to each other, then welded together. I do not know much about the origination of the trailer except that it was built in Alabama. Probably decades ago. The Mercury frame is intact underneath. It does have two lengths of box tubing added. One forms the tongue and the other provides rigidity to the rear of the trailer. The axle is box tubing also with independent spindles and overload leaf springs. The hitch coupler is 2". The body is in very good shape. It has no dents and never has had any. You can inspect the inside of the quarter panels from inside of the trunk lids. They are very straight. There are about a dozen small rust spots, about half of the size of a dime, in two of the four quarter panels and both trunk lids. You can see them in the pics. The paint is Rustoleum. We applied it to protect it from the elements. It was just primer when we got it. The paint looks ok from 20 feet away. The chrome paint divider is from Pep Boys but looks great! It is just a stick on trim, but looks like it belongs there! The tires are near new radial trailer tires with "PORTAWALLS" portable wide white walls. The spare is used and has a portawall too. The rear bumper is pitted and was painted aluminum color when we got it. The tail light housings are pitted as well. The lenses are faded. All in all the trailer is very presentable, as is, but would benefit from a professional paint job, a nice bumper and tail lights. It pulls very nicely and needs nothing mechanically. I will bet that you have never seen another one like it! I think that $3500 is a fair price. We just spent a bundle on it. You could not build another one for this price! I can help arrange shipping or deliver it myself for a fee.
