1963 Dixon-bate trailer

[22900013A]

Wheeledbeast asked for more pics of my trailer so I finally found some old ones.








I would very much like to get the legs for this, and have it overhauled, can anyone help?

. I assume it is braked what is the metal angle work on the front for

Yes it has brakes but I don't think they work, it it less than 750KG gross anyway.

The fold down bit you mean? At a guess it is some kind of work bench. I think this trailer was used by underground jointers rather than linesmen.

By the way the sign writing is original, as is most of the paintwork.

Very nice trailer - I have a soft spot for old trailers for LR's, so I may be slightly biased, but this one really looks the part. There's an ex-SEB (but probably much younger) trailer on eBay right now, painted olive drab but was 99 quid the last I looked. Also a very handy design, with similar lockable lids over the top of the trailer tub.

Do you have a link to that please?

Sorry, lost the link, but I think it was titled 'jeep trailer' - it may have ended already... It looked like something from the 1980's.

No access to eBay from work except via the phone, so can't find it at the moment

EDIT: Found the link in deleted email messages: http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11010.m1 ... ADE%3A1653

Hmm he says 1970 and ex electricity board...may not be SEB though as most boards made use of similar trailers.
