FS Ben Hur project

Post by Robin » Fri Aug 27, 2021 5:13 pm

Good candidate for restoration. Very straight box, tail gate. Original tail lights still there. Here's the list of missing parts:
Fenders
Brake drums and brake assembly
Hitch assembly
Wrong wheels
A previous owner has moved the box back on the frame about 10 inches. Simple matter of moving it back where it belongs. All of the tie down rings are there. Both tail gate pins and chains are there. Original paint and unit markings. $600 located near Salem, Oregon.

The axle is original. Previous owner removed the drums for some reason.

I understand that. But if someone wanted my parts for your trailer, they would get the axle as well or it would be ruined.

Hello Robin,

That is an awesome trailer, and treasure !!!

It served with the 96th Infantry Divsion , at Camp Adair Oregon !!

What an incredible find !!
My fathers Division, the 70th Infantry Division also trained at Camp Adair and went to France.
The 96th went to the Pacific Theater.

Someone in Oregon should rescue this local piece of history at that great price!!!


Good luck on the sale !

Maybe post it for sale in the "Tracked" section, as I know there are some Halftrack owners in Oregon that should buy this from you !!

Halftracks pull these perfectly !


Best Regards,
Ray
