Ben hur question

Post by vwsf » Mon Jun 13, 2022 6:32 pm

Does a Ben Hur trailer have a serial number stamped anywhere on the frame?
Thank you

Tom,

Unfortunately without a data tag it's hard to guess. It doesn't help there were 30 different manufacturers. I did find a date on an axle stub on my trailer. There's a type study thread in this section I started a few years ago. Also there's a trailer registry in the link in my signature line. Where known trailers have their data tags and overall pictures posted so you can pick out features to see if it matches your trailer.
