Austin Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Anyone any general info or pictures? Mine is getting delivered tomorrow! I think it'll look awesome behind my Austin K9. The one I've got is on 9.00x20 tyres, and I think it's the 1 1/2 ton version. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Elsdon Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Austin where did you find that Black and White picture with the Pigs and K9s with 1 ton trailers, pictures of Pigs with a trailer are a rare thing! Anyway here is a not so rare picture of my Pig with Brockhouse 1 ton trailer, i bought it ex MOD release from Anchor Supplies in Nottingham, at a real bargain price, just a bit of work to clean it up and give it a coat of paint and its a cracker of a trailer.

Austin Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) Picture of the Pigs and trailers was posted on the Austin K series gallery in British vehicles. Its a great picture innit! Thanks for those measurements Ian. We borrowed a lighting board, had a quick check over of the trailer and then pulled it home. I couldn't believe how big it is! Apparently, it was bought at an auction with two Bedford trucks in 1962 and wasn't used since. It still has a plate with its military registration number. I plan on restoring it and taking to rallies behind the K9. Edited October 4, 2009 by Austin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HWade Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Hi Nice trailers, a mate of mine has one that he tows behind his Morris MRA1 painted in dark bronze green looks really good. Howard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Elsdon Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 You still have your plate on the draw bar, here is mine for comparison:- Trailer Cargo 1 Ton 2 WH Brockhouse Veh No: 18 EN 91, Chassis No: BT8/18190, Cont No: WV2037 Notice yours still has its brass "U/L CofG" (Unladen centre of gravity) plates, which seem to have disappeared on others i have seen. Mine was later converted to the catchy sounding: Power Plant Elec 2-3.5 KVA 120/240V S/P 50 C/S No.1 Mk2 Trailer 1 Ton. And it was used by the Royal Signals. Now i have removed a small bucket load of little brackets and widgets that would of held the two generators and exhaust system in/on the trailer, and it mainly looks like the original G.S. trailer.
