Is that 7x5?
And If you don't mind me asking, what's something like that roughly worth?
Cheers

I'm looking at getting a trailer, like the idea of it tipping,  just wondering what kinda coin I'm up for :)

That one's 6x4 "Premium" (vs Light Weight), but with the cage (600mm), yes, just under $2k.

& yep, Spada picked the right mob!

The students at the Acacia Ridge TAFE make them sometimes they sell them off.  7x5 tippers.  We had one that was about 30yrs old and still going strong.  I think I have plans somewhere...

I bought an 8x5 override mechanical braked box trailer with 900mm high sides, jockey wheel, rego and spare tyre from century trailers in west Brisbane for 3k


Pretty sure that they come out of the same Chinese factory.

Certainly looks to be identical to ours!

"Supposedly" ::) made in Oz, but yeah, you're probably right.

They put local hitches and wiring on them so the unwary think they’re made here ??? ???

As I had posted in the Webber thread, we bought a Baby Q,
I also purchased a pack of foil skins the go under the burner, about $45 for 7? Skins.
Love them, they keep under the grills clean.
I tagged them in a post, saying how happy I was, well they sent me another bunch of skins.
Ya gotta be happy with that :)
If ya unsure what they are.

The Lawrence Rodeo Committee,
We finally got to hold a meeting after our Rodeo just before New Years.
After two years of not being able to host it, it was a huge success.
Record entries(competitors), a big crowd even tho it rained, we are able to giving back to the community and other clubs that helped on the day,  a total of $25 000.00.

Without each one of these groups giving of their time, it wouldn't happen.
I'll get a list of these soon.
Well done

This has come up on so many social media outlets.
It's gotta to be a set up imo.

Maybe the tent was wet and they wanted to dry it out before packing it up
