My trailer is not flashy, but it looks good and gets many comments such as, "That's the only Mercedes trailer I've ever seen; where'd you get that?" Well, its made from the cargo bed of a '37, '38 or so Ford pickup. I installed new springs, axle, wheels and the MB wheel covers 'bout 15 years ago. I usually paint it to match color of its tow car, but I was reluctant to paint it arctic white like the current tow car, '87 300D, so I painted it burgundy to match the car interior and the thin striping down each side.

Kinda interesting, just the thing for mama to go to the garden
shop in.

From the one, distant photo it looks pretty good.  I think I see
hinges above the rear glass, so maybe the glass is actually a
hatch.

I still think for my lifestyle a truck bed needs to be on a
truck.  For light-duty, open bed hauling a trailer makes a lot
more sense - though a lot less flashy.
