that would be nice, bet the price was right too...

I spent a few days last summer helping my brother with his cattle trailer he bought. Needed a lot of lower steel replaced behind the wheels...

IH red with a white stripe down the side!

Oh, I am all for IH red. With some white, that'll be a right sharp trailer.

You stole that trailer man! But, I'm not tell you anything you odn't already know. ;)

p.s. Friends don't let friends drive Green Tractors...

Re: Horse Trailer

IH red woud look good on it, but then again you could do a 2 tone like your tow rig.

Looks like a good trailer, even though it is red. I replaced the bottom 12 inches on my grandfather's trailer years ago. And who would want an intertrashonal, green all the way.:lol: Or an allis chalmers, orange is cool.

Allis chalmers! I've still got one! my dad bleeds JD Green so we always argue about which is better, but he wont hook them up end to end to see who pulls (mine is a might bigger!)

good looking trailer, how does the inside look?
