I bought it last July for $800. It used to be a pop-up, but a previous owner framed it in the up position, as well as framing in a ramp door in the back. I just hauled it through 12 states/6400 miles.

I love it for what I'm using it for, something to haul my gear in and then camp in. But after taking it on a long trip, I realize I want something bigger that I can also put my motorcycle in and do some more travelling.

Only thing I've done to it is put new leaf springs on it ($400) and new tail lights.

It does need some work to keep it in action. A fair amount of dry rotted wood here and there that will need to be replaced eventually. Would be a great project for someone with the skills to refurbhish it.

Here are a few pics. If anyone is seriously interested I can take some more and chat with you about it.

It really is a unique trailer and I wish I had the time and skills to do the work it needs.

AND, it already has Colorado Prospector Club decals on it, so you'll be ready to represent the club! CP_Member.gif

Just looking to pass it along to someone who will appreciate it. For my CP peeps, I'd take $500 for it.

If you get a chance, I'd love to see how you set it up on the inside Crusty.

Haven't done anything to it yet... still pondering. For now, I just throw up a cot.
