This is located in Tioga, PA. Not sure what the price is. Is this real or bubba? Trailer is in pretty good shape.

It's not original, the missiles look to be built from tubing and randome stuff (not bad though). It was put together to catch people's eyes, more than likely for a surplus store. If it was real, it would have a launch rail and the rockets would not be welded to the stand. O

Yes, I know that the missile is made of tube and welded to the frame. My question was if that is the intended use of the trailer.

Shelter carrier with tubing as mentioned. Eye catching though.

pull pins and unit splits into 2 pieces.. one set of wheels for front and one set for rear of a sea container.. hydrolic rams lift and lock into place...then roll on down the road... :D

I just looked at that picture again and realized I know where that is. That is not too far from where I used to live. Small world.
