I've been looking for a couple years for an inexpensive flatbed trailer to haul my TC18 around. Very hard to find something without spending at leat $1200. My neighbor/ friend has a camper frame (rolling chassis) that he picked up at auction 2 years ago and hasn't done anything with it. He said I could have it for what he paid-$250. It looks to be in good condition other than surface rust. It has tandem axels, shocks, electric brakes and all steel C channel frame. It's about 6-7 ft wide and 18 ft long. It will need to be sandblasted and painted ( I can do). I'm thinking that with 2'' pressure treated decking, this thing should be able to haul my tractor and a whole lot more. I think a camper this size probably weighs about 4500 lbs? Anyone have an idea as to what this trailer would be rated at if I made into a flatbed? Do you think it would make a good trailer for the intended purpose? Would it be worth the investment if I spend another $300 to make it useable?
