Anything think this thing has potential?

Trade schools are a great place to learn to weld or to get things welded.
Let us know what you decide. Good luck!

Looks a little like this.

Not that is GREAT inspiration. Very close to what I need / want (albeit a bit more height for bikes in it). Still waiting to hear back from seller.

Given you won't be doing the work yourself, I wouldn't buy it without a plan. I'd get an idea in my head of what I want to do then talk to a fabricator and get a firm price from him. Fabrication can soak up a bunch of funds quickly. Unless you're doing very little too it, I'd guess you'll be spending a bunch of money to get something that weighs way too much. Think about it this way. There's probably less than $1,000 worth of material there. An entry level trailer, that may take up to 9 months to get will cost you $4,000. That's $3,000 worth of labor being built on a production basis. You're talking about custom work on this one. WAY more money.

Take a look st Sierra 4x4's price lists and see what it would cost to build a basic trailer that is new. Then figure out what this trailer might cost after you mod it and see which option looks better.

On the trailer in the picture, remove all of the junk on top of the frame and maybe install a brand new tub that you'd order from Sierra 4x4

looks (too) heavy for what you're going to get out of it

Thanks everyone. No word from the seller. Great perspective. I may have to pass on this one, considering I haven't heard back yet. The great quest continues. A custom made one doesn't seem such a bad way to go when I consider what fabrication "could" cost.
