For sale in Massachusetts, Bubba's "improved" cart
I recently came across a farm trailer, made with parts from a M3A4 hand cart... The cart basket, hand bar, hand bar mount, and the lunette eye are gone forever.. The tires appear to be later replacements..Present is the entire axle assembly with all attached parts , including the wheels , bearings, and hubcaps .. Also present is the tow bar with both halves of the axle and basket clamps...Now for the Bubba modifications... The original steel pipe axle was saw cut into two halves and one 5/16'" hole was drilled all the way through each half pipe. ( it can be saved)..The lunette was cut off and the remaining pipe showing past the riveted axle clamp is 42" long . Other issues; one wheel hub has free play , appears to need tightening or a new bearing . ..both wheels have some rust at the valve stems ... One bolt is broken off and will have to be drilled out of the large axle / tow bar clamp... I'm asking $650 for everything. I may sell individual items if it's in my best interest... I'd prefer local pickup in Westfield MA ... Can"t make the G503 pictures work... Please email me for pictures at OMalleyWR@AOL.com .. Also, i would appreciate some assistance in loading the pictures here on the G ... Thank you, Mark O.

"steep asking price"... I tend to understate the condition of used parts... I'll keep trying to get pictures up.. Mark O
