Odd Narrow track trailer at Withams

Anyone else notice this one?

 

http://www.mod-sales.com/auction/vehicle/related/71915/Sankey_12_Tonne_Trailer.htm

 

Here is what I have spotted:

 

- narrow track, thought these had gone ages ago

- no makers plate visible

- odd spare tyre mount on side

- licence plate mount on left, usually on right

- water bowser type sliding flap in rear panel

 

Can anyone comment on it?

Spare wheel mount is a Series LR one, nothing too special.

 

Back to the oddities:

Note also the lack of tie-down rings in the tub.

Also short of a rear leg.

 

Possibly an apprentice rebuild and parked in the corner of the workshops? In any event i bet it took a bit to coax it away from the hoarder :D

===============

 

It is a late-build Sankey --GB-- onwards "narrow-track" , the tubs are different in detail (these have the circular flap for hone on back panel) + a few other differences IIRC hollow AEON bump-stops being more obvious over the early conical type
