Default help finding a trailer

I have been trying to find an M101 CND or M416 (or something similar in design) and keep coming up empty handed. I was hoping to find one in the New Brunswick, Canada area but at this point am considering any where from Ontario to the east coast.

A couple of questions, if you don't mind...

What price range are you looking for (in US $, please)

Are you willing to import from USA?

What condition trailer do you require? Like new <1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10> Needs lots of welding and restoration?

Have you contacted the M101cdn surplus resellers? I noticed some "like new" for sale recently in Canada. I can look it up tomorrow, I have the link at work.

Looking for around $800-$900 (maybe a bit more for something in exceptional shape)

Trying to find one in Canada as I don't really care to go through the hassle of importing but if I found something for the right price close to me it is a possibility.

As for condition, minimal welding. I don't mind doing the dirty work to clean it up but I don't have access to a welder right now.

How do I find out about the surpless sellers?

thanks

Great. All I have been able to find so far is a LR defender trailer for $1250 and its 10 hours away.

I have not dealt with them, know nothing about them, other than they say they have trailers for sale...

http://www.futurelogistics.ca/AftermarketSales.html

Click on "PDF flyer to print" if the pics don't go through for you. They were not viewable for me this morning, but usually are. Also note there are no taillights included.

Hope this helps...

*edit* This one is about 8 hours from you, and looks to be in good condition. Boston, Mass., USA.

I think the same seller has a Bantam for sale, too.

8 hours is a bit far. I am back and forth between the east coast and Ontario every few months. I don't mind picking one up on the way (and making a visit out of it) but don't really want to drive a long round trip just for the trailer.

I'm at work right now and can't see the pdf. I'll check it out at lunch. Thanks for the link
