Hello George and list,

Thanks for the email response(s). (RE: converting M105 trailer to HUMVEE
wheels)

I am able to push this trailer around by myself with great difficulty :)
(and it has 500 lbs. in it), and fairly easily with two people. It has a
single steel wheel landing gear, not two wheel. It does not show any
sign of alteration. I do not recall any outward indication of air
assisted brakes.

The trailer is not presently here, so I cannot readily re-inspect the
underside for air or hydraulics. I thought the plate said 1966 mfr.
(Johnson?) and M105A2. Does this make sense? I know little about
trailers. (ask me an armor question).

It is in excellent, excellent condition. New beachwood canvas and
painted and marked Korean War vintage. No rust that I recall. Indoor
storage (heated) for the last 11 years. It's titled and registered with
excellent to near new tires. I do not see a wiring harness although the
lighs are alll there and as new.

Is it worth anything? What is the Mil # for a "HUMVEE trailer"? What is
a "HUMVEE trailer" worth? Is it feasable to "even trade"?

Thanks to all for your kind patience.

Regards,
Tom
