My buddy asks me to go help pick up a T3C from a craigslist add...is in a barn in pieces...disassemble for a resto project long forgotten about...the seller wants it out of his garage/barn... thinks it is a civilian T3C...

we go to pick it up and....this is what we walked away with...

the shock mounts are threaded top and bottom, bolted to frame, Bantam park brake assy...and as yet no SNs on the horn or under the rear gusset...rear/tail was cut off and trashed so no joy there...but did find the stars....The cross members are fabbed and the front casting has been removed...and about 18 inches of SM has been removed from the rear ....all else is original to trailer..oh and the tail lights are civvy too...but he paid stupid money for an early ( I think) Bantam T3..

 

For my services of putting it all together.....icing on the cake...a CJ PTO drum belt drive, found in the barn too...
