The hardest thing to do was to find a forum to put this thread in. Pretty sure this may be the right one. But anyway. As some may know, my dad passed this account down to me, I'm 17 and built my CJ7 Golden Eagle with this help of this site. But just from that one build I've went Cj crazy so to speak. All of my friends that have Jeeps have their cute little wranglers... Well I always tell them I'm stick to my roots with all my cjs... Then I noticed it got out of hand... I found an old Bantam civilian trailer sitting in a barn and had to have it. Then today, 2 years prior to my first jeep trailer purchase, I found an old bantam trailer in a guys yard, and had to have it. So today I'm officially the owner of not one, but 2 Bantam trailers. To add to the collection of 4 other Jeeps. This trailer was the 425th one to roll out of Butler Pa, just 1 hour north. My first purchase is unknown, but still rolled off the line some 60+ years ago. For now, I'm just going to hold on to it, and fix it up but it will be forsale within the next year or so. But really, have my 17 year old buying antics landed me in a never ending battle for cjs?
