m416

Unread post by Lindsay36551 » July 16th, 2017, 7:07 pm

I'm working in the yard today and a guy stops and asks me if I need a work trailer!
Asked if he had pics and showed me a decent 416 (civilianized) tail gate, 12 volt lights and no lunette.
Gave him 150.00 for it! NO rust, parking brake in order, 2 almost new military tires on correct rims and the lunette!
Off to sand blasting and paint shop! :D :D :D :D :D :D
Some times it pays to do the lawns and trim !

I would be REAL suspicious of that one and ask the local police to check it out before going to far with it. Receiving stolen property can be a serious charge. At least if you call them first it changes things to you being proactive. At least then if it is stolen all you lose is the trailer and 150.00 and not your ass!

Thank you Ken!
No data plate, but will look for any numbers or graphics as we slowly take her down to bare metal.
I'm lucky to have a sand blaster guy that loves mv's .
Oh buy the way the title says homemade.

Hey Rick,
They did it correctly!
Cut lunette ring off and drilled 2 holes thru lunette shaft and bolted it on!
Had a MV friend stop over last night , said he sold it to the gentleman about four years ago . he used it to clear his property . I guess no longer needed it!
