I was perusing my http://1942willys.homestead.com/Converto-0360xxx.html photos and found that this is a trailer that could precede the USA 0360 522 but unfortunately my old eyes cannot decipher the number. It appears to be 0360 (?)28 but I can't be sure. Maybe someone with great computer skills could figure out what the mystery number is. Send me a PM for the actual photos or click the above link. These two were attempts by me to adjust them so that I could try to decipher the digits and they didn't do so well.roblenzz wrote: ↑Wed May 13, 2020 5:23 am

Re: CONVERTO DUMP TRAILER database UPDATED 1st PAGE
Hello,
It looks like 528 are the last 3 digits, making it close,
but it looks like Bobby's is still the oldest known Converto
It would be good if the owner could post a clear picture to verify the hard to determine numbers.
I recently also bought a Converto, no data tag, not much paint, except an area with the USA number under it on one side of the trailer.
I assume that USA number is the same as the serial number, that is stamped on the data plate.
Once I get to working on the trailer, I will finish uncovering it to find the number to post here.
Best Regards,
Ray

Hi all. Just picked up Converto serial number (0)878100 to pull behind my 1947 Willys. I'm a new member living in Eastern Washington State.Trailer is in great shat - only one small dent, no rust holes. Just need to find some 16 inch wheels for NDT tires and a replacement lunette ring.
everything else is there.

Just picked up a Converto. I have a thing for two wheeled stuff. My plan for the next few winters is use it to landscape my yard.
Looks like some type of modification on the axle.
