M416 found e-bay (NJ)

[Francis Marion]

I know there's a few NJ MUTTers here so this may be an easy pick-up for some. Has plenty of rust but can't see any rust through in the pics.

What should a M416 like this go for? How about a clean one with fresh paint?

That is not a bad looking trailer at all! I do not want to put a price on here and possibly ruin someones bidding. I would guess it will go up quite a bit. A good trailer with fresh paint will bring and in good working order will bring 1200.00.

Hey FM,
I've picked up 2 of these trailers in the past 2 years. Both in about the shape as the one I see on ebay, neither one did I pay $400 for. This trailer has A2 style composites on it, add $25 to the value, = $400. Mine were just like this, in need of complete sandblasting, minor floor patching of pinholes, primer and paint. Should have a set of good used Cooper tires thrown on it, new reflectors and a set of Larsen stencils too. Put in $600 for the above, and it's a $1000 to $1200 trailer. Somebody is going to pay $600+ in a sniper war for this trailer and it will never be worth what they have in it. If you wait long enough, you'll find one close by for under $400 and have a good base to do a simple but complete restore. Steer clear of the ones with tailgates, unless you want a modified trailer for a purpose. JMHO
