More work done yesterday. Took off all the electrical, parking brake mechanism, and a few other odds and ends. Turned the tub over and whoa....say hello to a hell of a lot grease and northern New Mexico soil: Bad news: found a crack in the side rail frame hidden underneath shock mount, hence...

Thanks. The tub is in good shape with a few minor dents here and there. If you rock it back and forth, it feels quite stout structurally speaking. The deck of the tub is in tact but it has a lot of rust and someone drilled a number of holes in it. There are several coats of paint on this thing...

A few more shots of some neat features, like the ID plates: Spent some time yesterday stripping things off the trailer in preparation for sandblasting. Overall, things were in pretty good shape considering how old this is and who knows what it’s been used for. Tires and fenders off...

I picked up a 1952 M100 Jeep trailer a few weekends ago and decided to make a thread devoted to converting it to an overlanding/camping trailer. Overall thing is in pretty good shape despite it’s age. My plan is to turn it into a camping rig for now ( I hate packing and unpacking the Jeep every...

Looks sweet! What’s your plans for the floor of the trailer? Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Nice tribute. Sorry for you loss. So tough to lose a member of the family.

Well...it does appear to be OD. I found a spot where it’s showing through. The inside of the bed is in really bad shape with several layers of paint. It won’t be possible to take off the top layers and preserve the original, but it’s cool to see. BTW, my dad fought in the Korean War, so it’s...

Yea, I’m excited about it. Something to take my mind off all this virus stuff. The guy I picked the trailer up from had all kinds of cool old Jeep projects. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

So.... I ended up getting the trailer. I’m pretty excited about it. Think I’ll sandblast the old paint off and either stick with original olive drab or paint match the Jeep. Thanks for the suggestions like the Por 15. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Thinking of purchasing this '52 military pintel trailer. I would like to use it for some extended camping trips, nothing too wild off road but I don't know much at all about these trailers. What do you think a fair price would be? I looked up some prices on the internet and they seem all over...

Nice! Homegrown tomatoes are the best. We planted sun gold variety last year and man, they were super productive and tasty. Good luck with yours! Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

This was the toilet paper aisle at a local Walmart this weekend: Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Lovely guitars in this thread. Here’s a recent acquisition of mine. It’s not a white falcon (a dream guitar of mine) but it’s still a lot of fun to play and I’m fond of orange. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

My wife bought me tickets to see Billy Idol in Vegas a few months ago. The concert is this Saturday and her boss is giving her shit about us flying to Vegas and going to the show due to Coronavirus. He says she might have to stay home for two weeks upon return. Anyone else running into this at...

You know Eddie, that’s a really good point. It’s a catch 22 I guess. With more and more people exploring the outdoors in general, I’m unfortunately running into a lot more morons and stupidity...jeeping, hiking, or whatever. The one advantage I have is I live in a great outdoors state that few...

No doubt. I’m kind of a nerd when it comes to maps...I just like looking at them...all kinds digital or hard copy. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Yep. I been using Gaia for a while now on my iPad and it works well. I was stoked to receive the blog info from them regarding CarPlay. Now I just need a head unit that supports CarPlay. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Thinking of selling my 730n factory stereo. I’ve had it for about three years and it came out of a 2014 JKUR. Has the uconnect built in, Bluetooth, navigation, and satellite. Hard drive stores lots of songs. There’s nothing wrong with the stereo, I’m wanting a stereo with Apple CarPlay instead...

Nice upgrade! Post some pics after the install. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app
