About time they listed an actual Bring a Trailer project.
Most of what they do now is Bring a Brinks Truck.
Of course this one is on the opposite end of the country from me, perhaps a good thing as shipping cost will temper my enthusiasm.

It is kind of nice that the winner of a bring a trailer auction would actually have to bring a trailer! 

[BDA]

I have to say that it looks la good project! A very basic one but it seems to have a lot of nice parts.

[Sandyman]

I agree. Good project if you know what you have. It will be interesting to see what it sells for.

[Richard48Y]

Still sitting at a giveaway price.
I would bid to buy, but shipping kills the bargain from so far away. 

[Richard48Y]

Went for only $3,500.
I think that is less than parts value.

[jbcollier]

I don't know.  Frame is toast requiring skilled, major repairs or replacement.  It may mean other parts (a-arms, uprights, etc) ae suspect as well.

[Richard48Y]

A Canadian guy personally took measurements of the frame, it is within 1/4". Looks worse than it actually is.
So repair should not be hard.
Hopefully the buyer will join us shortly.
