building a dump trailer from a rv trailer


Recommended Posts

got a great deal on a 61 chevy pickup that was way too far gone to repair but it had a brand new chevy crate motor and a new dump bed.

when we went to pick up the truck they also had a stripped 20ft rv trailer we bought with this project in mind.
