Hi to all on board here! I am based down in Devon and have recently acquired an old 'farm trailer' that I converting into a living cabin. I knew nothing of the background on the unit but in doing some cleaning and priming have found the I.D. plate.
From what I can make out he ID plate reads:
"TRAILER CHASSIS, 5 TON, 4WHLD
NO. 1 MK ? E.E. Cont. No. 23/5884
CHASSIS NO. 20088, W.D.No. Xo6867297"
If anyone has any thoughts on what type of trailer this is I would be very interested. Another issue (and one I am sure many of you are familiar with...) it currently has four 10.50 x 13 tubed tyres, all of which are still holding air, but some are very perished. I cannot find a modern replacement for this size tyre so again, if anyone has info on this that would be great. I then just need to get the wheels/tyres off...?!
Anyway I am very pleased to have found such a good forum.
Festive wishes to all!
Simon
