Here's my recently acquired Bantam T3-C. I'm cheating a little here by mostly posting photos of it still wet but the thing is in amazing shape. I've learned that it was almost always garaged when not in use. It was originally OD and has been repainted its current color twice. All of the metal is original with nothing being repaired or reworked. It came to me with a cut-to-fit piece of plywood which was used as a bedliner that obviously did its job protecting the floor. Serial number is "17287" which I believe makes it a '47.
The tail lights, wheels, and coupler are not original and the safety chains are missing. I still don't know a lot about these trailers so if anyone notices anything else out of the ordinary - good or bad - I'm curious to hear it.
I plan to replace the incorrect parts with original ones and will update this thread as I make any progress. I'm also considering painting it gray to match my 3A.

, that my friend is a fantastic find, unbelievable shape. I am no expert but all looks well, except for the Rh tail lite, I believe that was added, and a nice job of it........I also have plywood cut for my user trailers, takes the load off the floor.
