Doc,

It is a Civilian version Ben Hur. I saw a post on these on another group some time ago. In the post they said it was 1/2 ton and immediate Post War.

The perfect accessory for all those "canned hams" that you already own.

Hello dr duece
Thanks for posting a picture of your trailer.
I have a trailer just like that one.
That is quite interesting to see yours
has a Ben Hur data plate. Where is
the plate located? Mine does not have one.
I have seen two other trailers in the past like
these and they both had the name BRADLEY
stenciled on the tailgate.
