Someone sold it for cheap due to the fact that it’s 30 years old. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it’s in pretty good condition considering.
In the picture I am in the process of scrubbing away the worst rust bits. Turned out to be mostly surface stuff. Scrubbed what I could, and got a nice thick coat of Hammerite
The brakes should be replaced soon, but it’s not urgent. Same goes for the bed, but that’s not urgent either.
Lights worked fine, but used the old 7 pin connector. I replaced it with a proper 13 pin ISO 11446 connector so I can plug it into my car without an adapter.
Make sure you give the wheel bearings a look at. Seen many an old trailer lose a wheel from bad bearings .
They’re good for now, plus the previous owner greased them up last year. Just to be on the safe side, I’ve decided to swap them when I swap the brakes. Maybe next year.
