Quick edit to add the "current state photo" at the beginning of the thread.
I was planning to doing a trailer in about 2 years. Recently someone else's abandoned project showed up locally for $150 and I couldn't pass it up. I've added a coat of paint to keep the rust at bay. Initial plans are to plug up the two open tube ends on the rear, add sealed plywood to the bed and sides, add a tongue jack, lights and safety chains and drag it around.
I've been eyeing the RTT trailers and the idea really appeals to me. I believe this thing is built quite sturdy enough to support one. I'm thinking that for towing purposes I might want to add some triangle brace pieces to the front/tongue area before loading it down much or driving on anything but roads.
Oh, this is my first post. Hi!
