Here at Chez Hall I hobble around and try to make the things that I can’t afford to buy and one of my long term projects has been to refurbish/rebuild my trailer. Find below some pictures of the project which I have felt moved to finish recently because I need it to pick up some parts for the Morris. The final result does look rather funereal, in fact I make jokes about it being a fat-man’s coffin.
How is this Mascot for a bit of bling on the Morris? $45 on ebay
I have been building my trailer for a while now and mainly it has been languishing unfinished behind the shed
The point of the exercise was to make something that was light weight and totally recycled, in fact the only thing that is new on this project is a few fasteners and some welding supplies .I will be fitting the lights today and they are all sourced from a motorcycle
The steel came from here and there , some courtesy of my brother’s scrap heap , the skin was from a couple of steel doors . The guards are from an old ford tyre ,the axle and springs from the back of a Barina , The Jockey wheel came from the recycling shed at my local tip . the floor is a sheet of form ply from a ute -load of the stuff that I was given by a friend. There are eight trunk handles that I have had in the cupboard for the last decade that will provide tie down points to secure any load,
Cheers Comrades

A coffin on wheels, after todays budget update, looks like a fitting vehicle for Christ Bowen to be carted off in. 😆
Looks more like a flat-bottomed boat, Iain. If it’s a coffin, I hope the corpse has a pointy head.
Its a little over a metre wide Ray so not as pointy as it looks in the picture.
Yes James, I have been busy working in my shop removed an engine from my Morris, and now I can work on getting the ready to skin the body which should make it look far more like a car and with the trailer I can collect the sheet metal
