Nice truck! ... something about the paint reminds me a 718K
The trailer caught my eye too. A little Zieman. It looks like the same as mine except there are a lot of additional tiedown on that one. Did you get that too?
Great little tilt beds for Haffies and up to Mighty Mites.

No I could have got the trailer, but with a 10 foot enclosed wells cargo I bought for my first one, this one will a 20+ foot trailer so I can bring them both out at the same time.

Nice!
Time to update your signature
Now you have to try and pick which one to drive!
Love the slant backs
Congrats again and post some pics once you get it.
Would be cool if you could document the foot well wooded plates - I would like to make some

Hmmm.. I think I can grasp having enough trailers.
If the sellers still has the trailer, I would highly recommend it to anyone needing a Haffy trailer. The GVW is 2200lbs (iirc) and it probably weighs almost half of most other trailers. The light weight and size is perfect for any vehicle that is rated to tow 1 ton.

Andre made me a foldable roll cage for the back that mounts without any extra holes or welding to the body.
I wanted something that I could also add shade for the back passengers.

Andre made it to the SF Bay Area Friday afternoon. Crashed at my shop Friday night and pulled out on Saturday heading north......
Sweat little haffy. However, it's got a bit of a wobble at 60 mph when you hit the potholes... I tried to lighten his load by about 1200 lbs, but he would have nothing of that!
Cheers,
Scott

Hey Scott glad you got a chance to take her for a spin since you didn't at Mogfest. Sounds like you will be seeing my other haffy as well in the next week or so.

Andre and his son were here yesterday finishing up the roll protection on the haffy. I was all ready to bring it to the powder coat shop but decided to just paint it for now until I decide if I want to make any mods like a suggested accessory hanging panel
