Arizona truck bed
Hey, I have this trailer that has, what I believe is, a 47-55.1 bed on it. It is pretty sturdy, no real rust (been in my family and Arizona housed since at least 1964) . The fenders look like they were shaved a little on the bottom.
Is this for sure a 47-55.1 ? Also does it have a value beyond remaining a utility trailer ?

Re: Arizona truck bed
Bed is 47-53 .....54 and 55 1st had flat top bed rails..might have slight value to someone that was really needing some parts...or wanting a trailer to match a truck....looks like it's doing its job just fine as a trailer..

Re: Arizona truck bed
Lotsa guys starting their projects with flatbeds or big truck cabs with no box who could use that.

Re: Arizona truck bed
The good news is that if you have a trailer hitch you can get it home without too much hassle.
The front panel is probably too beat up for most to fix but sides look better than most I have looked at over the years including some I drove a long ways to look at. It looks like it has early 50's Buick wheels or implement wheels on it.

Re: Arizona truck bed
If I only had the white cab and front end needed a bed to match.
As if I need another project. *sigh* |

Good eye on the wheels. They are implement reversible rims. They have a valve stem on each side. There is probably 2 1/2 - 3 inches difference on off-set.
